No wonder she conceded so easily. She will not be tough to beat in 2020. Ducey ran and won his reelection in November. If he had made his choice public, he would not have even won his Primary.
So it’s a good idea to appoint a proven loser???? Someone who couldn’t beat a dingbat????
Of course you can’t expect much from a state that put mcstain and flake in office.
Well we might be pleasantly surprised on election night in 2020. She won a very close election to the House in the Tucson area the first time she was elected. Then she was reelected in a big landslide for a second term. The Tucson area is also generally a more liberal region of Arizona, although I don’t know the demographic details of the district she represented. It may have been the more conservative part of Tucson.
But anyway, she seemed to grow on people in the Tucson area as they saw more of her on TV and in person. So hopefully she’ll become more popular statewide as people watch her on TV news. Governor Ducey had to appoint a qualified Republican and someone who wants to spend the majority of the year in Washington, and there aren’t too many people like that in AZ. It’s a long way from Washington and a lot of qualified Republicans don’t want to live out there most of the year. She’s very smart and disciplined and won’t say anything dumb or crazy, and won’t give her opponents any video to use against her. She has a good chance of winning the special election in 2020.
