Radiology Candidate Makes Electoral History
In Arizona, Dr. Steve Ferrara made history as the first radiologist congressional candidate to win a contested primary race. Dr. Ferrara’s 59% of the vote (more than 21,000 total votes) helped him soundly defeat his opponent by more than 25%. Even more impressive, Dr. Ferrara’s main opponent in the primary was the 2016 Republican nominee for the same Arizona 9th Congressional District seat. Dr. Ferrara has earned the support and endorsement from more than fifteen House Republican members of Congress, as well as twenty physician organizations.

In his first 8 weeks as a candidate, Dr. Ferrara raised $256,243 for his campaign and ended the fundraising quarter with more than $245,000 cash on hand. The amount raised by Dr. Ferrara in his first quarter is believed to be a record for a first time congressional candidate in the state of Arizona. In DC political circles, raising $200,000 per quarter is a threshold for a candidate’s viability.
