The Arizona Democratic Party is happy to announce the addition of Maria Weeg as their Executive Director. Weeg hails from Boise, Idaho, where she's been Executive Director of the Idaho Democratic Party since February 2004.

Weeg started her political career in Idaho as a page in the House Minority office in 1988 & continued moving up in the ranks, becoming the Coordinated Campaign Field Director for the Idaho Democratic Party in 2002 & ultimately the Executive Director of the Party in 2004.
