Mesa Mayor John Giles: I am a lifelong Republican. So, I feel a little out of place tonight, but I feel more at home here than in today's Republican Party.. John McCain's Republican party is gone and we don't owe a damn thing to what is left behind.
JUST IN: A judge certifies that the "Make Elections Fair" initiative has enough signatures to qualify for the November ballot.
If passed by voters it would convert Arizona's conventional primary system to an open primary while giving discretion to the legislature to decide the number of candidates that would go to runoff.
Republican Mayor of Mesa, Arizona: I am a lifelong Republican. I do not recognize my own party. The Republican Party has been taken over by extremists. I have something to say to those of us who are in the middle. You don’t owe a damn thing to that party. You don’t owe anything to a party that is out of touch and hellbent on taking us backward. You owe no displaced loyalty to a candidate who is morally and ethically bankrupt. In the spirit of the great Senator John McCain, please join me in putting country over party, stopping Donald Trump, protecting the rule of law, protecting our Constitution, and protecting democracy by voting for Kamala Harris
NEW: Justin Heap, a candidate vying to be in charge of how Maricopa County processes and stores millions of records, has a history of not being able to keep track of his own records. The incumbent Stephen Richer says that’s a problem. https://t.co/3JQQXpWLPE
Our Presidential elections nowadays are decided by 20,000 people each in 5 swing states. Living in one of those states (Arizona) I can tell you, if you're a party person don't presume to speak for Independents. They do just fine themselves, that's why they are Independents.
If your candidate has an off night and you immediately panic and say 'OMG what will the Independents think?' you're diminishing them. A guy whose only answer to every question is 'killers and rapists are coming over the border!' still has that bullshit answer regardless of the reality television persona it's delivered in and a lot of Independents I know can smell bullshit even if it's covered in Old Spice and L'Oreal self tanner.
Hold the line, Democracy is at stake.
In 2020, I stood in front of 4,000 Iowa Republicans and said Trump was a pathological liar, and I was booed off the stage. So I appreciate @stephen_richer. There is no more courageous Republican out there right now than Stephen. Go to https://t.co/bjs7YB9Jb1. He needs your support. And listen to this clip. This is political courage.👇
Happy to finally meet Maricopa County Recorder @stephen_richer and support his re-election efforts. He is clearly the most qualified candidate. However, it seems we both could step up our selfie game. 😄
@BarryMarkson1 Sadly, many AZ Democrats seem unfamiliar with this concept:
'Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.'
@SmithforAZ would be an amazing U.S. Congressman. It’s difficult to understand why AZ Dems keep making the same mistake and expecting a different result.
AZ Democrats are so stupid. Andy Biggs is too extreme & represents a deeply Republican district in the east valley. A democrat will never beat him because the district is gerrymandered to protect Biggs. The only way to beat Biggs is for a moderate Republican to run as an independent, and for no Democrat to run. If the district's Dems and reasonable Ind and GOP vote for the Independent he can beat Biggs.
Clint Smith ran as an independent in 2022 but a random Dem ran against him as a vanity project. Dems told Clint they will not run a Dem candidate in 2024. But now, an unknown Dem is running in another vanity project. She is literally guaranteeing Biggs another term.
There are so many Republicans in the district who will vote for an alternative to Biggs, but Dems can't get out of their own way. Unbelievable.
