Arizona Legislative District 28 covers a suburban stretch of northwestern Maricopa County that includes parts of Peoria, Surprise, Glendale, Sun City, and Sun City West. Like every Arizona legislative district, it sends one state senator and two state representatives to the Capitol in Phoenix. All three current officeholders are Republicans, and the district has been solidly GOP since its current boundaries took effect.
Where LD 28 Sits
The district is in the West Valley portion of the Phoenix metropolitan area, taking in pieces of Peoria, Surprise, and Glendale along with the retirement communities of Sun City and Sun City West. The Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission adopted the current map on January 21, 2022, and it will stay in place until new maps follow the 2030 Census.1Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission.

Voter Registration and Partisan Lean

With Republicans outnumbering Democrats by more than two to one, the competitive race for LD 28 seats almost always happens in the Republican primary rather than the general election. If you want a real voice in who represents the district, the primary is the ballot to plan around.

Why the District Looks the Way It Does
Arizona’s legislative boundaries are drawn by the Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission, a five-member body with no more than two members from any single political party, not by the legislature itself.9Arizona Legislature. Arizona Constitution Article 4 Part 2 Section 1 The commission follows six ranked constitutional goals, and competitiveness sits at the bottom of that list. That ordering is why a district like LD 28 can end up safely in one party’s column: the commission is not required to build competitive races at the expense of keeping communities together or following recognizable boundaries. The current map runs through the next redistricting cycle after the 2030 Census.
