Chispa and Bloomberg's Beyond Carbon group have both contributed to the $144,000 spent in opposition to Republican Lea Márquez Peterson. During the next election in 2016, APS openly supported commission candidates.

"It doesn’t mean higher prices," Tovar said. He said in a statement that peak rates have "never been a great deal for seniors and working families," and the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated its damages. Fellow commissioners Bob Burns, the chair, reaches the end of his term limit this year and Boyd Dunn failed to qualify for the ballot after his petition signatures were challenged in court.

The rulings leave Eric Sloan and incumbent Lea Marquez Peterson as the only Republicans running for the five-member board, which regulates utilities and sets electric rates for millions of Arizona residents.

TUSK supported two Republican candidates for the commission in 2014, drawing the attention of Arizona Public Service Co., the state's biggest utility. If elected, he says he will work to bring "real and lasting ethics reform" by demanding transparency from utilities.

That group, whose source of funding is unclear, has taken out ads that highlight a state report about Sloan when he worked at the Arizona Department of Gaming.

Tovar leads in total votes, followed by Mundell and Stanfield, respectively.

Márquez Peterson is running for her second term on the Arizona Corporation Commission as the race's only incumbent. She earlier lost her one election bid for Congress running against Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick in 2018.
