I’d rate it a tossup with the best democrat being Katie Hobbs

If Hispanics shift in Arizona the way they've shifted in Florida and New Mexico, the state will once more be unwinnable for Democrats.

Hispanic! Are not! A monolith!

There will not be a pivot, and it's very curious to me how Lake thinks this is a winning message for a state that rejected Trumpism in 2020.



Fun fact; in biology/oceanography a “red tide” comes from toxic waste being dumped in the water and it can reek havoc on the local eco system

The same thing is true in politics

Republicans have a stunning lack of empathy.
The homeless issue is getting out of control. It used to just be in Phoenix/Tempe, now you can start seeing homeless people near the overpass exit ramps of suburbs and even upscale ones. People moved into these places to get away from this type of stuff and now it is slowly creeping back. She's offering some help, but no we aren't going to be like California and allow homeless drug addicts to keep injecting themselves at the taxpayers expense (Luckily Newsom vetoed).

Think we may have pushed her too hard. Get ready for Dark Katie, folks.

Nah. Kari Lake responded with this:



Hobbs is a loser. Lake is electrifying. Remember...the left cannot meme.

Have you seen the Pennsylvania senate election?

Holy cow. She puts the press into a trance. This woman is something else. Not only will she probably win (and put Arizona's 11 electoral votes back to the GOP in '24) but she probably has a bright national future herself.

Democrats boosted Lake in the primary - as they did many other MAGA candidates - because they were confident that they could beat her in the general. It's backfiring on them now. She certainly was underestimated.

Some Dem operatives apparently learned zero lessons from 2016's pied piper strategy.

They didn't, and now it's almost certain that Lake and some of these other election denialists are going to win next month.

I don't know how to tell you this, but Republican primary voters have agency. Democrats didn't trick them into voting for Lake. This is a right-wing talking point, but I'm not surprised that you're falling for it.

Of course they have agency, but as has been said many times before, many Democrats were uncomfortable with these particular tactics and do not believe they should have been employed. I'm far from the only person who has made this point. And why are you "surprised"? I'm getting tired of this "#bothsideism" nonsense that you and other posters continue to bash me and those like me with.

I fail to see the both sidisms of this.

Did democrats boost Lake? Yes
Did it make an impact? Maybe?
Would she have won the primary regardless? Most Probably

The effect of democrats swinging republicans primaries is greatly over exaggerated

Need I remind you that one of the things that brought down Evan Meecham was similar racist statements and trying to cancel MLK Day?

Hoffman losing prevented this from being a Democratic sweep of the statewide offices, right?

Also the GOP has majorities of just 1 in both the state House and Senate... damn, so close to a blue wave completely overtaking the state!

As for this nonsense about Californians turning AZ blue, doesn't even make sense considering most of the Californians leaving the state actually lean right and are trying to escape liberal policies. Many retirees move to AZ too, just like Florida. No, the GOP just needs to accept that they have turned off a ton of independents and moderate Rs in the state. In part by being one of the craziest state parties and in part by tying themselves to a man who vocally hated John McCain.

It could never have been a sweep. Mine Inspector ran unopposed and Yee was called for treasurer a while ago

I don’t know if this has been posted yet but the LT Governor proposal passed 55/45. The geography of the vote is a strangely clean north/south divide you don’t usually in Arizona

It's a kind of strange cognitive dissonance: the only election that wasn't stolen is the election I won.

It’s not so much cognitive dissonance as just authoritative

These people are so obnoxious.

Was that judge a right or left-leaning one? Just a for fun question. Their lawsuits are so baseless and poorly preparated, even most conservative judges flat out dismiss them. Trump got 60 of them thrown out.

Judge: “So this is your entire complaint Mr. Minchem?”

*judge holds up a piece of printer paper with the word “FRAUD” printed in large black letters on it*

Finches: “Yes.”

Judge:… alright I’m retiring

I've long thought she was just grifting, but I'm starting to believe that she's genuinely insane.

I believe I had all A’s last semester, shame it doesn’t work that way
