BOB KARP

Bob Karp ran for Arizona LD14 House of Representatives in 2018 and the State Senate in 2020. Bob, a graduate of UCLA, has owned and operated a small manufacturing aerospace company, a software development company, and after retirement here in Arizona a Real Estate brokerage. He moved to Cochise County in 2005 and now lives in Sierra Vista.

Bob believes:
“The best way to create long term reform is to flip the state legislature from Republican control and extremism, to mainstream political values under Democratic Party control.”

Bob’s mainstream values include defending public-school education, advocating fair tax policy, protecting women’s healthcare, supporting the non-partisan fraud-free election system that has served this state well for decades.

Legislative District 19 – State House

GREGG FROSTROM

Gregg grew up in a small town on the Eastern shore of Maryland. Gregg’s ambition to see the world led him to join the United States Army in 1995 on the path to a career in Military Intelligence. In 1997, Gregg arrived at Fort Huachuca for the first time. He fell in love with the sky and stars of Southern Arizona. Gregg returned to Fort Huachuca three more times through his 23 year service career which included four combat deployments to Afghanistan and one peacekeeping tour to Kosovo.  Gregg retired as a Chief Warrant Officer Four (CW4) in 2018 to pursue a career in project management in the pharmaceutical research industry. He and his wife, Caroline, have made Arizona their home with their three children, Rebecca, Matthew and Ridley. Gregg has a Bachelors of Arts in Intelligence Studies from American Military University and an MBA from the University of Arizona. 

As former president of the College Republicans of Salisbury State University, Gregg left the GOP in the mid-2000s when he recognized that his old party’s values were shifting towards populism, isolationism, and xenophobia. He still has small town values he was raised with and believes that the government can serve the people of LD19 by ensuring better rural healthcare, protecting our water resources and supporting local public schools through integrated jobs programs and better funding.
