Former Arizona District 1 Representative Ann Kirkpatrick says she plans to run for Congress again in 2012. Kirkpatrick lost to Republican Paul Gosar last year.
She told the Arizona Republic that she hopes the 2012 political climate will be more hospitable to her candidacy because it is a presidential year and will probably have a bigger voter turnout.
Arizona’s congressional districts will be redrawn this year to accommodate an additional House seat that the state is getting because of its population growth. This could significantly change the 1st Congressional district. But since Kirkpatrick and Gosar are both from Flagstaff, they’ll most likely be in the same district.
