Elijah NortonAbout Elijah
Elijah Norton is an America first conservative, who has been active in Arizona politics for years. He has helped numerous America-first candidates for US Congress, Senate, and state legislature, has been a major fundraiser for various conservative candidates—donating over $500,000 in the 2022 election cycle alone, and has been a proud supporter of grassroots efforts throughout Arizona. Elijah has truly lived the American dream. He started a business with just $1000, today – over a decade later, his insurance company generates over $120 million in annual revenue and operates across the United States and globally. As an executive of a multimillion-dollar insurance company, Elijah has extensive knowledge of audits, financial statement preparation, and accounting. Elijah wants to put that knowledge to work for the AZGOP to have accurate and transparent financials. Also, as a former candidate for federal office, Elijah is very well acquainted with the numerous Federal and Arizona regulations that govern the reports that the AZGOP has to file.

Once there is a sense of accountability and transparency in the AZGOP books, Elijah is confident donors will donate big to help propel the AZGOP forward. As a former federal candidate who raised nearly $800,000 in one election cycle alone—Elijah has the fundraising skillset and relationships with conservative, America-first donors to help us raise the money to win in 2024. Elijah plans to work with the Chairperson to engage in an aggressive fundraising campaign.

In addition to his comprehensive financial background, Elijah has a vision for our party to lead us into 2024 and beyond!

Elijah's Vision for the AZGOP

In 2018, Republicans controlled nearly every statewide elected office, had comfortable majorities in the state legislature, and had both US senate seats. Today, Arizona now has a Democrat governor, secretary of state, and attorney general. Both US senate seats are held by Democrats, and we are only one seat away in both the Arizona House and Arizona Senate from delivering Katie Hobbs a Democratic legislature. What we have been doing ISN’T WORKING. We need a chair and an executive board that understands this. Elijah does, and if elected plans to:

  • Work to establish a new active election-integrity task force
  • Work with the Maricopa GOP to oust the Maricopa county board of supervisors
  • Be strategic with candidate selection and races
  • Establish a massive voter registration initiative to GROW the GOP
  • Have an accountable and transparent GOP
  • Recruit the “best of the best” candidates to run for office up and down the ballot
  • WIN elections – not just by a little, but by LARGE margins
  • Focus on "get out the vote" efforts in ALL counties - not just Maricopa and Pima
