"I got to know Doug Ducey on the campaign trail. We had a months-long,
hard-fought battle. And, I'll tell you one thing--he's a conservative.
We had many of the same ideas, and they were foremost about safe and
solid investments. That approach will be important as we combat the
Democrat's risky schemes for the Treasurer's office. It's time for
Republicans to come together. I fully support and endorse Doug Ducey
for State Treasurer".

Ducey best pick among GOP field | Arizona Republic
The state treasurer is Arizona's chief financial officer, responsible for holding, investing and disbursing state money. The job calls for prudence, attention to detail and good management.
The treasurer needs an eye for balance sheets, not politics. Business leader Doug Ducey is the strongest Republican candidate for the job.
The former chief executive officer of Cold Stone Creamery honed his organizational skills while overseeing a huge expansion of the franchise that took it across the nation and into 10 other countries. He now is chief investor and chairman at iMemories, which digitizes home movies.
Ducey, making his first run for public office, can bring a fresh and dynamic perspective to state government.
While recognizing that it's not part of the job description, he pledges to help the next governor generate jobs in Arizona with his insight into business and entrepreneurs.
He also aims to improve the AZ Checkbook website, current Treasurer Dean Martin's effort to make state finances more transparent. So far, it's only a framework.
Ducey wants to add the clear, meaningful content that would make this a real tool for legislators and the public.
