No longer present. When this page was last checked, on August 5, 2026, this guidance was not found. The finding remains on the ledger and the archived evidence below is preserved — guidance taken down after drawing notice is itself part of the record.
The page functions as a detailed media-buy instruction sheet for an outside group, specifying target audiences (by turnout history, party registration, gender), channels (mail, text, on-the-go), timing (before early voting), and exact message themes (positive for Shah, negative for Galán-Woods). It also provides ad-ready assets. This is not a press release or voter-facing page; it is red-box guidance.

likely Democratic primary voters in AZ CD 1 IMMEDIATELY need to know
Directive language prescribing what voters should be told, addressed to an outside spender.Voters in Arizona need to receive positive messages about Amish that include the following supporting facts
Prescribed message themes for paid communications.Effective messages should focus on mail and text to registered Democrats and unaffiliated voters who turned out in at least one of the last three Democratic primaries (8/2020, 8/2022, or 7/2024), along with recent Democratic registrants.
Explicit channel (mail and text) and audience targeting instructions for media buy.If resources are limited, the most important voters to receive these messages are those who voted in either the 8/2022 or 7/2024 Democratic primary, plus new Democratic registrants. Of these, female voters are the highest priority.
Further audience segmentation and priority ranking for paid outreach.This communication should start as soon as possible, as early voting begins on June 24 and the large majority of primary voters (likely about 70%) will vote early.
Timing guidance for when to run the ads.Arizona voters need to see on-the-go secondary messages that contain positive messages about Amish and, separately, negative messages about Marlene Galán-Woods.

Skip to Content Take Action Issues About Media Awards Endorsements English Donate RESOURCES LAST UPDATED JULY 1, 2026 – PLEASE CHECK BACK DAILY FOR UPDATES Key Dates Election Day: July 21 Early voting begins: June 24 The Shah campaign will continue to run a positive campaign focused on our track record of accomplishments for Arizonans and long list of Democratic endorsements. We are channeling all our energy at attacking Trump for wrecking our economy, causing skyrocketing prices and undermining our Democracy. The Shah campaign will not attack primary opponents running for this seat unless we are first attacked by them or their allies. (UPDATE: On June 23, 2026, our campaign was attacked with a negative message by a Galan-Woods ally on television.) Because we were attacked with paid communications by the Galan-Woods campaign or their allies, likely Democratic primary voters in AZ CD 1 IMMEDIATELY need to know: Democrats can’t trust self-described “lifelong Republican” Marlene Galán-Woods. She is lying about her record and trying to fool Democrats to get elected. She spent decades as a top Republican insider and donor to right-wing, anti-abortion, anti-immigrant Republicans. She worked to defeat President Obama twice, supporting and raising money for his GOP opponents. On social media, she disparaged President Obama’s record while supporting his opponent who vowed to repeal the ACA. Her campaign is funded by Trump and MAGA Republican megadonors. “One of her biggest donors is a Republican lawyer who was prominently trying to overturn Donald Trump’s election loss in Arizona” – The Daily Beast Woods is a “onetime member of the state’s Republican elite” and “has referred to herself as a ‘lifelong Republican’” – The Daily Beast Marlene Galán-Woods Donor Lookup with donations to Republicans including Jan Brewer Photo and video of Marlene Galán-Woods clapping behind Jan Brewer at her victory party while she advocates for “firing” President Obama and Speaker Pelosi. The real Democratic choice for Congress is Dr. Amish Shah, an emergency room doctor, former state representative, and the only candidate with a proven record of fighting back against MAGA extremists to protect Arizonans. In Congress, only Amish has the courage and experience to fight back against Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s attacks on our health care and democracy. Amish has never been afraid to take on the tough fights, whether it’s in the ER or when he led the charge in the State House to stand up to MAGA Republicans to block an extreme abortion ban from becoming law and protect voting rights. Voters in Arizona need to receive positive messages about Amish that include the following supporting facts: Amish has a 100% pro-choice voting record and was named Women's Health Champion/Legislator of the Year for standing up to MAGA Republicans to block an extreme abortion ban from becoming law. Women in Arizona have access to the abortion pill thanks to Dr. Shah. He also introduced a law to expand access to birth control. Amish is endorsed by dozens of Democratic leaders because he’s the only candidate with a proven record of standing up to Trump and MAGA. Amish has never taken a dime in corporate PAC money, and in Congress he’ll pass a ban on members of Congress from trading stocks and hold corrupt politicians like Trump accountable to stop them from enriching themselves at the expense of the middle class. Voters in Arizona need to read the truth about Marlene Galán-Woods immediately. Effective messages should focus on mail and text to registered Democrats and unaffiliated voters who turned out in at least one of the last three Democratic primaries (8/2020, 8/2022, or 7/2024), along with recent Democratic registrants. All likely primary voters need to read the truth about Marlene Galán-Woods' record. If resources are limited, the most important voters to receive these messages are those who voted in either the 8/2022 or 7/2024 Democratic primary, plus new Democratic registrants. Of these, female voters are the highest priority. Voters who have already cast their ballots in the primary election do not need to receive communications. This communication should start as soon as possible, as early voting begins on June 24 and the large majority of primary voters (likely about 70%) will vote early. Most ballots will be returned prior to July 14. Arizona voters need to see on-the-go secondary messages that contain positive messages about Amish and, separately, negative messages about Marlene Galán-Woods. Arizona voters also need to read positive statements about Amish Shah’s record. Effective messages will be distributed to the same audiences that read positive messages. We anticipate that audiences will be most receptive to separate communications for negative and positive messages that they read.
