Now this does put a smile on my face

Tbh, this is fascist rhetoric. The GOP has really gone totally authoritarian. I dunno whether I should laugh or cry about "statements" like these.

[AZdude]

Well, I guess it's pretty safe to say she's not going to moderate.

I guess she's banking on the general mood of the electorate to carry her into office.

Can't wait for the debates.

This is all they got. No concrete policy agenda, no salutations to actual problems, let alone an actual intellectual debate over the direction of the state she's running to lead. Just making themselves victims to a supposedly evil federal government, no matter how hard the evidence against their cult leader and no matter how many times the 2020 election lie is discredited. Large parts of the Republican Party have become beyond pathetic.

oh my god i cannot take her seriously with these filtered videos lmao

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

She is hurting Blake Masters that's why Kelly is up 54/40 and Mastriano is hurting Oz, they are both down by 10 that's why Rs are saying now if D's get Senate they will win it back and Ryan and Beasley are leading and Demings is tied we don't know what happens in WI but we can win PA, OH, NC and FL while WI or GA can go R it's not a 52/48 Senate it's 51/56 seats just like Rs aren't guarenteed the H the range is 235/210

Users don't know what an estimate probability they assume it's an R H but it's a range of 235R/210 and in the S it a range of 51/56 Senate Ds

[wbrocks67]

Basically running a Mastriano-style campaign at this point. Just going all in on the base without even trying to appeal to the middle

Given that Biden's unpopular in Arizona, I think it's wise for Lake to make it a referendum on him rather than herself.

[Devout Centrist]

“Let’s make this a referendum on Sleepy Joe.”

“Okay, what are you solutions to the ongoing drought?”

“President Trump has been the most unfairly treated President EVER!”

“Uh alright, where do you stand on abortion?”

“The 2020 Election was completely and totally rigged!”

“…do you have any plans to deal with the cost of living crisis?”

“DESANTIS HAS A BIG C.OCK!!!”

“…”

Donald Trump is arguably likely even more unpopular in AZ than Biden is right now.

And your bonus tidbit from the SoS race:

[wbrocks67]

Yeah I seriously don't think Finchem will win. He's literally the most extreme candidate in the entire country at this point, and that's saying something.

Usually SoS elections are low profile but this one is certainly not. Fontes probably is a better democratic nominee than Bolding was as Fontes had a much clearer message and overall campaign. I’m not discounting the stupidity of voters, but writing this off as just another SoS election where voters don’t know much about either of the candidates appears to be wrong.

[Progressive Pessimist]

Finchem scares me more than Mastriano. I hope you're all correct that Arizonans will actually care enough about all this to reject him with well-deserved prejudice.

That goes for all four of the state's major competitive statewide elections actually. They all need to be tied together because even one of them winning could be disastrous.

[Devout Centrist]

Let's check in on the Lake campaign to see what attacks they're going with this cycle:

This is the state I am dooming the most about. Katie Hobbs needs to step up her game and start hitting the campaign trail. Thus far, she has run a nonexistent campaign.

She’s been on the trail for much of the past two weeks. What are you talking about?

She doesn’t seem to be as visible as Kari Lake.

Probably because Hobbs appears to be doing normal campaign stops and Lake just gets free publicity for saying crazy sh*t all day

When your opponent is off the rails, you don’t generally want to steal the spotlight from them.

I don't know if he really helps here.

Also aren't here comments somewhat endorsing the idea of the patriarchy in politics (yet she's a woman running for Gov). Generally, you wouldn't refer to a woman, especially a conservative woman, as having "BDE"

Kari Lake wanted to praise DeSantis and Trump in some way and seems not to have thought through her remarks here.
