Yup.
With a name like Flake, you knows he’s one....Kelli Ward, please....
With aggressive bain cancer McInsane is unlikely to make it.
Details of AZ state and local primary elections:
Unaffiliated voters may choose which party’s ballot they will vote on.
Party members may only vote on their party’s ballot.
Voter registration closes 29 days before the primary election.
BEWARE: Flake is hoping to lure several pro-Trump challengers into the primary against him so he can split the vote and win < 40% of the vote.
I doubt it. He has enriched himself during his tenure. Do you think that any Congress Critter still needs a job after leaving Congress? With the booming stock market they must have made some great gains with their ability for insider trading.
Thanks - appears Flakester will not get help from leftists.
The problem is, I so loathe this open borders POS that even if he beats Kelli Ward in the primary, I cannot vote for him in the General. We run the risk of losing the Senate (and that sucks), but what has the Senate done to help us?
I know that the Democrats will immediately begin impeachment proceedings on some imaginary charges against Trump..and then there’s the next USSC pick to be considered. It’s a tough place to be.
And many ask “what’s wrong with Arizona voters?” Believe me buddy, it’s not just Arizona. RINOS are entrenched everywhere.
btw, the AZ Gov a pro-Trumper in case McInsane dies and the Gov appoints a replacement?
Correct, although I don’t trust the Gov yet.
That would be a good thing as he would then not be able to run in the republican primary and with cross-over democrat voters prevent a real republican from getting the nomination. In a straight up race between a republican and a democrat, the republican will almost always win in Arizona.
Remarkable considering that MESA AZ, was the BEGINNING of the Mormons in Arizona. I live there.
The difference between Flake and Trump is that Flake has not done a damn thing to try to keep the conservative base happy...so now he’s got NO ONE - the Dems certainly won’t go over to him, so he’s all alone.
Trump is holding his base, which is why his 40% or so approval doesn’t fluctuate much...but if Trump jettisons us, he’ll also be looking at 18% and with that that number, he’ll likely get impeached, out of spite, if for no other reason.
It would be good to replace him with a more conservative and loyal Republican. It would be horrendous if the terrorist chick who might be the dem nominee were elected.
He’s a dumbass, attacking the President won’t make dems like him just leave him with no constituency other than the media.
Other Senate news, “failed” Congressional Candidate Danny Tarkanian, who should have been nominated for the Senate in 2010 is primarying Heller, poll has Heller up just 38% to 34%. Rosen who “beat” Tark for CD-3 last year will be the rat, I really want that House seat back.
In CD-4, Las Vegas Councilman Stavros Anthony (R) is running.
I hope Ward replaces him.
That’s terrible primary polling for Heller, if the numbers are reliable. If he has no enthusiastic base of support on the GOP side, he’s going to lose this seat.
