She demonstrated she's a liberal and devout socialist. Former conservative Gov. Jan Brewer also pointed that out recently. But Sinema wants to establish herself as an Independent since so many AZ voters are registered as Independent. She asked for support from the AZ State Troopers Association. Neither AZ DPS nor ASTA can support political candidates by state constitution and because ASTA is a 501(c) organization. ASTA does have a PAC whose Board threw her support without consulting the ASTA membership. However, her commercials still reflected AZ State Troopers supported her instead of the PAC. Hundreds of AZ DPS Troopers, threatened to drop out of ASTA which caused the PAC to withdraw that support. While her brother is supposedly a LEO (not certain where) I am not aware of any LE organization that supports Sinema. He did a silly political ad with her early in the campaign. Sinema is nothing more than a new age Hanoi Jane Fonda in my opinion. If people would mind their own damn business this country would be better off. I owe no one an explanation or an apology for my personal opinion. | |||

Arizona Senate Election Results: Martha McSally vs. Kyrsten Sinema Martha McSally leads by 0.9 percentage points, or 15,838 votes, over Kyrsten Sinema with 99 percent of precincts reporting. Candidate Party Votes Pct. Martha McSally Republican 850,980 49.3% Kyrsten Sinema Democrat 835,142 48.4 Angela Green Green 38,655 2.2 "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Who do you think the Green Party candidate siphoned those 38,000 votes from? Not the Republican. She handed us the victory. Bruce "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams “It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free." -Niccolo Machiavelli The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken | |||

McSally wasn’t my choice in the primary, but I voted for her in the general election. What I really, truly don’t understand is how Doug Ducey wins by 18% and McSally is only ahead by 0.9%? How do you vote for one but not the other? | |||

^^^^^^^^^^^ Yep, Abbott wins by a much larger margin than Cruz, and the explaination I hear is that "Lots of Democrats love Abbott" Bullshit. The Senate races in Texas and Arizona were perhaps the most important ones in the country. Project Veritas just barely touched on illegal voting in Texas. There are millions of illegal aliens in this country, and they do serve a useful purpose for certain folks.

I have no doubt that illegals voted all over the country. But in Texas and Arizona is just doesn't make sense to me that they voted for the D for the senate race, but voted for the R for governor. It just seems like they'd vote more straight ticket D than jump around between the two parties..? | |||

been living here in southern Arizona for three years now and I cannot figure out the voters here - they seem somehow psychotic when it comes to the ballot box things are getting much better here, things are improvisor, companies are moving back, wages seem to be on the increase, home values are off their lows and increasing I can be at the border in 60 miles, we have DMAFB and the single largest collection of CBP agents anywhere in the country and the people here still lean libtard I just don't understand it three of my six neighbors are libtards as is the city councils and school boards [B] Against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC | |||

There's something about the presence of money and success that seems to make people stupid. I help manage people's money and I see it all the time. I read somewhere that the places where the Republicans were in the most trouble were places with economies that were booming or improving. V. | |||

My mail-in ballot took me over two hours to complete. There were something like 40 retain or reject judges on there, none of whom I'd ever heard of. I researched all of them. Then there were the school board, corp. commission, mayoral, state leg. elections, ballot initiatives and a few really obscure ones I had no idea about and couldn't find anything about online. So I can see a lot of folks just connecting the arrow next to Ducey's name and then being discouraged when they see how much more there is to go to complete the ballot. | |||

The odd voting in AZ might be contributed to the large % of Independent voters. This is the latest from the Secretary Of State's Office. Voter Registration Statistics - November 1, 2018* Registered Voters Democratic 1,151,745 Green 6,463 Libertarian 31,583 Republican 1,288,332 Other 1,238,038 Total 3,716,161 AZ had a population of over 7,000,000 residents in 2017. Half the population didn't vote this midterm for one reason or another. We're natives and seen the state shift from red to purple with the influx of out of state (mostly east/west coast) people moving here. Three large regional universities contribute to the liberalism. If people would mind their own damn business this country would be better off. I owe no one an explanation or an apology for my personal opinion. | |||

I will make a guess that none of those people have served in the military, especially in combat. They have lived in peace in their own little worlds while others serving in distant lands paid the price for their freedoms. When America was at war in WW II, did this happen? No. The generations that followed did this. I guarantee WW II and Korea war vets or their families were not the ones who spit on returning Vietnam vets. The same disconnect exists today. | |||

Problem is, Democrats are the majority in leadership here. I've been to a few Tucson City Council meetings and the Pima County commissioner meetings and when I leave the building I look for the sign on the wall that reads: "Bang head here". IMO, the TCC and the Pima County commissioners are some of the dumbest people I ever met. ********* "Some people are alive today because it's against the law to kill them". | |||

Thankfully the vast majority of the state is still right/conservatives I recently moved to Arizona (couple years back) from NY to escape a leftist gulag and most ( by no means not all) those transplanting here are trying to escape the liberals not importing those views to AZ | |||

Looking online a litle while ago, I saw that Sinema now has a 2000 vote lead with about 650,000 votes to go. This could be a while.

Probably because Maricopa County (Phoenix) is the last to be counted, and like all big cities tends to be Democrat. Sinema's lead now is about 9000. My sister (bless her departed soul) would be furious over this--she was definitely Conservative in her views. Her sons, however, are not.
