Flipping Arizona Blue in the 2020 Election: Alexis Salcedo

Most of us complain about some aspect of the U.S government, but very few go out and try to impact the political process. Especially for the 2020 election, heated campaigns called for action across the nation, up and down the ballot, and of any year, this year was the one to get involved. 

Alexis Salcedo left her job in communications in DC, packing her bags and drove to Iowa to help Warren for President in the caucuses before joining Mark Kelly in Arizona. As a regional organizing director, managing several field organizers in getting out the vote for Senate, Alexis successfully helped flip Arizona blue for the first time in over 20 years. In this interview, I'll be diving into how she found a path in politics, and what making political progress means to her.
