Official Profile
Background: Tucson roofer/contractor (Butierez Roofing). Self-described ex-felon (his platform highlights his own federal prosecution for cannabis possession resulting in 10-year sentence — informs his Criminal Justice plank against DOJ overreach). Has run for AZ-07 multiple times: 2024 general (lost to Raúl Grijalva 63.4-36.6), 2025 special general (lost to Adelita Grijalva 68.9-29.4).
AZ-07 R CHALLENGER — perennial Tucson candidate. STILL on 2026 R primary ballot. Most scoreable cells null because his platform is genuinely thin on the rubric's questions (no abortion/marriage/election/foreign-policy planks at all). HARD evidence: christian_liberty q0 (TRUE — 'Christ fights my battles and always will'; identifies Jesus as personal role model in Ballotpedia survey). Border-security rhetoric ('Fixing the damage of these open borders caused by Grijalva') is too vague to map to specific q-cells. 2A plank ('right given by God…so that every man woman and child would never be denied their right to defend themselves') is a general principle, not specific to constitutional-carry / red-flag / NFA repeal — held NULL on those cells per the sparse-data discipline. No Ballotpedia endorsements identified. Soft-left framing on Homelessness/Drugs plank (federally-funded job-training, healthcare, education) is atypical of small-government R rhetoric — flagged but not specifically scoreable.
