Barbara McGuire did not complete [the profile publisher]'s 2020 Candidate Connection survey.
McGuire's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[15]

Agriculture and water: A combined approach. Desalinization plants, water conservation programs, water recycling, cloud seeding, modified irrigation systems, and smart growth policies.
Public safety: Keeping the border secure without compromising commerce or the billions it brings to Arizona. Giving law enforcement the tools needed to keep communities safe.
Jobs: Job creation is vital in rural Arizona. Equal work for equal pay.[16]
