Here's a list of their endorsements:

While I don't know everyone on that list, I do recognize the two choices they've made from Arizona.
The first is Ruben Gallego. Gallego is about an inch short of being a Communist. He's good buddies with Raul Grijalva who is a hard-core Socialist and radical Leftist.
The other is Mark Kelly running for Senate. Kelly is running on two basic things: 1. He isn't Martha McSally his opponent and 2. His wife is Gabrielle Gifford who was shot by a drug addled schizophrenic and resultingly big on gun control. Outside of that, he's just another empty suit and nothing to choose between him and McSally. Neither choice is really worth a nickel except for one distinction between the two:
In his military career, Kelly was the commensurate insider, ticket puncher officer who did everything the military establishment expected. McSally was the first female to combat pilot to rise to colonel and she did so despite being every bit the establishment outsider fighting the system. Early in her career she accused another officer of attempted rape. The military tried to tamp this down and she refused getting the officer removed from service. In Saudi Arabia when the military ordered all female personnel to wear a burka off base, McSally refused and fought the military until the order was rescinded.
So, of the two, I give McSally credit for a track record of doing what she thinks is morally best while Kelly will do what the party tells him is best based on their lifetime personal histories. Otherwise, not a nickel's worth of difference.
