The former vice mayor of Paradise Valley has decided to run for the Arizona State House of Representatives in District 28 in the November 2014 election.
Mary Hamway plans to work with fellow Republican Kate Brophy McGee in hopes of unseating Democrat Eric Meyer in District 28, which covers northeast Phoenix, Arcadia and Paradise Valley.
She said her goal is to bring a breath of fresh air to the House using a pragmatic, hands-on approach.
“I’ve had a short break from my duties on the Paradise Valley Town Council and now I am ready to bring my energy and ideas to serve the residents of LD28,” she said.
In the coming weeks she will start building her campaign team, launching her website at maryhamway.com, and preparing for next year’s election season, she said.
