Laura Knaperek

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Laura Knaperek is a Republican public official in Arizona. She was first elected to the Arizona state House of Representatives in 1994. She compiled a conservative record while taking an avid interest in youth and family issues. In 2002, she ran for the state Senate, but lost the general election to Democrat Harry Mitchell. In 2004, she made a comeback, returning to the state House of Representatives, but was defeated for reelection in 2006. While out of office, she became Executive Director of United Families International, a conservative advocacy group. She recently announced that she would seek election to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2008. Ironically, she will be facing a rematch with Harry Mitchell, who was himself elected to that position in 2006.
