PHOENIX — Former Democratic Arizona Rep. Leezah Sun, who resigned in January 2024 after facing House expulsion on three accusations, announced Monday on social media that she is entering the 2026 state gubernatorial race as an independent.
Sun was elected in November 2022 to serve District 22. She resigned before her first term was up on Jan. 31, 2024, while facing accusations from the Arizona House Ethics Committee for “a pattern of inappropriate behavior,” including threatening to push a Tolleson lobbyist off a balcony.
