Uh Oh: Poll Has Sen. Jeff Flake Trailing GOP Primary Challenger By 14 Points
Townhall ^ | Aug 23, 2017 | Matt Vespa

Posted on 08/23/2017 3:01:17 PM PDT by detective

Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake is in trouble from all sides. With a dismal approval rating of 18 percent, he faces a primary challenge from former state Sen. Kelli Ward. At the federal level, President Trump torched Flake for being weak on borders, crime, and being a “non-factor” in the Senate. The president also called him toxic. In July, the Arizona senator’s vulnerabilities were highlighted by FiveThirtyEight, where the publication said it might not be a bad investment for Democrats to find someone to run against Flake since the state is shifting left, he’s never been popular, and he barely won in 2012.

Only 14 points?

Flake should be losing by at least 50 points.

I am of the opinion that once a couple of these “hold outs” get primaried out for not working with and for the President, that the rest will quietly and quickly, fall in line. Sad that the President will lose 2 years to whip the rinos into shape.

Jeff Flake's greatest achievement in the US Senate has been to be a simpering toady for the inside-the-Beltway, self-aggrandizing uniParty.

Flake needs to Go

You can help.

Support Dr. Kelli Ward

in her effort to unseat Jeff Flake.

Being The Flake has its punishment.

Arizona has a history of backing people who are totally against the people.

Look at how the abandoned Sheriff Joe.

A border state elects open border a-holes

A state which had a 116 percent rate increase on HC elects
over and over a Soros stooge like Crazy McCain.

Anything can happen in Arizona

Must be the heat that melts brains there

Good. Right now I am concentrating on the Alabama Senate race and I sent Moore $100 yesterday. In due time I will be sending money to Kelli Ward as well. 2018 is going to cost me some money to defeat the RINO’s.

You know Mitch and the RNC will be supporting the incumbents. That will make it a little harder.

The dems will sense a chance for this seat, thinking that Flake is vulnerable and Ward can be attacked for things she said in the past. That means that Dems will be focused on the primary. We should do whatever we can to make sure there are two contenders for the Dem nomination so that democrats don’t switch over and vote for Flake. Someone in that state has to pull some trickeration.

I heard Kelli on the radio Hannity, she won’t be backing the Turd-le

So we get Judge Roy Moore and her, so maybe we give the Ditch Mitch a real chance. I know he has to go.

Is there no recall for Senators?

No. Federal officeholders cannot be recalled. This has been litigated in federal court (Frank Church, 1967) and state court (Robert Menendez, 2013).

Going to be a rough ride. McTurtle’s PAC as already released a nasty commercial implying that she is a nut.

Push Kelli Ward to 100 points ahead of Flake.

Dembos are broke. They need to concentrate on keeping what they have.
