Arizona House Minority Leader Chad Campbell and Amy Love, Legislative Liaison at the Arizona Supreme Court, are the 2012 Best of the Capitol Best Hair award winners. Watch as the two get ready for the 2012 Arizona Capitol Times Best of the Capitol Awards Ceremony

Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton and Mesa Mayor Scott Smith are the Arizona Capitol Times’ 2012 Best of the Capitol Best Elected Officials, in the Republican and Democratic categories. Watch the opening sequence for their new hit sitcom “Scott & Greg.”

Sen. Michele Reagan, the inaugural winner for Best Handbag, a new category for 2011 Best of the Capitol, is a little reluctant to discuss the honor, as her husband might read it and discover the true extent of her collection.

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema is no stranger to the “Best Of” list, having previously won a slew of honors as a highly influential legislator and as one of the most stylish women at the Capitol.

Since the Arizona Cattle Growers’ Association began a major border security effort during the 2010 legislative session, the Phoenix-based organization has logged thousands of travel miles, met with hundreds of officials, and even seen the benefit of an upswing in the organization’s membership.

Patrick Bray, executive vice president for the Cattle Growers’ Association, says it has been fulfilling work, and that being recognized as this year’s winner for Best Grassroots Effort is icing on the cake.

“It’s truly been a tremendous effort, indeed,” Bray says, reflecting on the work accomplished since the Restore Our Border (R.O.B.) plan was drafted before the 2010 legislative session.
