The candidate filing deadline has passed in Arizona. With a hat tip to The Yellow Sheet for being first to publish, here is the current list of federal, statewide, and legislative candidates as of 4:30 p.m. on April 7th.

For the Legislature, the most vulnerable candidate might be Ronnie Maestas-Condos with a mere 20 signature cushion (5%) in LD14. She is one of thirteen candidates with a signature cushion under 100. All incumbents (other than those who previously announced their retirement) filed by the deadline with the exception of Rep. Isela Blanc (who later confirmed her own decision at the filing deadline). Sen. Tony Navarette has the smallest cushion among any incumbent, but he has no primary or general election opponent. Rep. Diego Rodriguez has the smallest signature cushion (24%) among incumbents with a primary election opponent.

On the other hand, Wendy Rogers blew away the field in signatures – with the Secretary of State even turning away a portion of her signatures because Rogers had already met the maximum allowed by Arizona law.

For the Corporation Commission race, David Farnsworth has the lowest signature cushion of any candidate (3%) and should expect a challenge. Bill Mundell and other Democrats in this race generally hold the edge in signatures.

As for federal races, Cong. Greg Stanton (249%) and Mark Kelly (201%) led their respective fields with the largest signature margin. Perhaps the biggest surprise is that no Libertarian candidates filed for the U.S. Senate despite four candidates who had filed statements of interest.
