Okay, now that is funny.
I live in the district and voted for Garcia. Because hes a Republican, the media have ignored the fact hes Hispanic. I call Christy Smith Katie Hill without the kink.
Me too, about 6 miles from Reagan Library.
For some strange reason Smith has used the fact that Garcia was a military pilot against him in the campaign as if that somehow makes him unqualified to hold elected office.
It’s a Vote By Mail election and Garcia will win by a large margin.
None of them were fighter pilots.
Gosh, even Katie Hill endorsed Christy Smith! Mike Garcia is a great guy. The Republican problem here, as it will be in every other race this yer, will be BALLOT HARVESTING. Plus whatever means the left is going to spring on us to cheat their way THIS TIME into winning. (Theres always something new, isnt there?)
In an aside, Mark Kelly is also pretending he will be an Independent voice for Arizona. That is what Sinema said 2 years ago, too. Hard core Leftists who havent held political office and cannot be pinned down on how they would actually vote. One thing we KNOW about Mr Giffords is that he will take your guns away. He has made that perfectly clear over the last decade or so.
And not only will we in Maricopa County have to fight the ballot harvesting (it IS illegal in Az, but no matter. When have the Dems ever cared about following the Law?), we will be fighting the Uber Leftist Fontes, OurRevolutions candidate that won the County Recorder seat in 2016. Look for Kelly to win, even though he wont win IF only LEGAL votes are counted.
Are you sure that Smith has no kink?
With mail in ballots Smith will get more votes than there are people in that district. And if need be they’ll be pouring in for weeks after they count up Garcia’s ballots.

What was McCsin flying when he was shot down over Nam?
Bush flew F4s. Whst fl you think the F stood for? B

Misread which Bush
Newbie trying to discourage voting?
Polls have showed him with a lead.
In fact, dems have said... we might lose the seat now, but we’ll get it back in November.
If she wins Im sure well find out.
A4 Skyhawk.
The ballots returned so far seem to favor Garcia. As of this week, 32 percent of registered Republicans, 20 percent of registered Democrats and 15 percent of registered independents had voted, according to Mitchells data.
Democrats are setting expectations low for the special election, citing the historically low turnout by their voters in these one-off contests, and setting their sights on November when the presidency will be decided.
article and voting information is from May 6th...
Polls have shown Garcia in the lead and thats why I predict that he will win.
Bush most certainly one, as was McCain. Regardless of your feelings about those men they were fighter pilots.
In Chronological order:
George McGovern was a USAAF B-24 Liberator bomber pilot in WW2, flying missions out of Italy.
George H. W. Bush was a Navy pilot flying the Grumman TBF/TBM Avenger Torpedo plane, it also carried bombs but was not designed as a dive bomber (i.e. like the Douglas Dauntless) off the the aircraft carrier San Jacinto.
McCain flew the Douglas A4 Skyhawk attack aircraft.
George W. Bush, Texas ARNG, flew the Convair F-102 Delta Dagger interceptor. It was a fighter designed to intercept and shoot down enemy bombers flying over the US. It was a dangerous plane to fly. A squadron or wing of F-102’s were deployed to Vietnam around 1965, but were withdrawn after it was decided the North Vietnamese didn’t have an air threat to South Vietnam. G. W. Bush did all of his flying in the US.
