Candidate record

Gary Swing

Holds no public office. The FEC lists him as the Green candidate; he has filed a statement of candidacy and registered no committee. Campaign affiliation: Green.

Voter guide

Background, stated goals, record, and money

Goals come from the campaign's own platform. Record lines are official actions.

How this guide is built

Background comes from official records, and from the campaign's own biography where the bullet says so; goals are summarized from the campaign's own platform and stay attributed; the record lines are official actions with the government source attached; money is shown as filed, with the filings it covers in the note under the table, and is not evidence of why any position was taken.

Gary Swing

Background

  • Holds no public office. The FEC lists him as the Green Party candidate for this seat; his statement of candidacy, filed July 19, 2025, gives a Tucson address.
  • His campaign site calls the campaign Gary Swing for Progress, Green Party of Arizona, 6th Congressional District.

What they say they want to do

  • A 90 per cent cut to the military budget, with all foreign bases closed.
  • Congress elected by proportional representation, with the Senate and the Electoral College abolished.
  • Abolishing ICE, no border wall, and freedom of migration.
  • Medicare for All, a universal basic income, and student loan forgiveness.
  • A move from fossil fuels and nuclear power to renewable energy.

What the official record shows

He has never held public office, so there is no record of votes or decisions to list. His site makes no claim about a record of his own.

Campaign money from other committees, by type

There is no money table because there is no committee. His statement of candidacy names one, but it never registered, and the FEC marks him as not having raised funds. A candidate who raises or spends no more than $5,000 does not have to register one.
