Aren’t there any men left in Arizona?
How about pushing for Zuhdi Jasser, a patriotic navy vet, who want to see Islam reformed?
from Wiki:
an American medical doctor specializing in internal medicine and nuclear cardiology in Phoenix, Arizona.[2] Jasser is a former lieutenant commander in the United States Navy,[3] where he served as staff internist in the Office of the Attending Physician of the United States Congress.[4] In 2003, with a group of American Muslims, Jasser founded the American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD) based in Phoenix, Arizona,[2] and in 2004 he was one of the founders of the Center for Islamic Pluralism.[5]
He is also a contributor to national and international media, where he has advocated separation of mosque and state and spoken against the ideology of “political Islam” or Islamism. He has been a frequent guest on Fox News Channel, Newsmax TV, CNN, CBS, MSNBC, and TheBlaze.[6] He has also contributed articles to nationally read newspapers such as the Arizona Republic,[7] The Dallas Morning News,[8] The New York Post,[9] The Wall Street Journal,[10] and The Washington Times.[11]
He testified before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Homeland Security hearings on The Extent of Radicalization in the American Muslim Community and the Community’s Response on March 10, 2011,[12] and before the United States House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution on June 24, 2011, on HR 963 the “See Something, Say Something Act.”[13] On June 20, 2012, Jasser appeared again before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Homeland Security to discuss the Muslim Community’s response to the committee’s hearings on radicalization in the American Muslim community.[14] On February 27, 2013, Jasser testified on the issue of “Anti-Semitism: A Growing Threat to All Faiths” before the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, Global Human Rights, and International Organizations.
In March 2012, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) appointed Jasser to serve a two-year term on the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom.[15] On June 25, 2013, in his role of USCIRF commissioner, Jasser appeared before the House Committee on Foreign Affairs joint subcommittee hearing on Religious Minorities in Syria: Caught in the Middle. On July 23, 2013, Jasser was elected vice chairman of USCIRF.
He was on a Levin episode, don’t know if I’ll be able to post a link...

Some of the links look odd lately, since they’re doing something with Beck/Blaze...
“Why do you believe that anyone would see that current objective as a barrier to accepting a Senate appointment?
Why would Ward prefer the AZ GOP chair to the Senate?”
It takes a lot less fundraising and would be easier to get elected to the AZ GOP chair.
Ward didn’t raise much money when she ran for the Senate and she’ll need a lot more of it in 2020. Plus she ran a lousy campaign (and I donated and voted for her).
McSally!
