Does AZ have a rat legislature? Has Hayworth's CD district been re-apportioned in recent years, or was Tempe always part of it?
The AZ legislature is controlled by the GOP, and I think Tempe has always been in that district. That's why moveon.org targeted Hayworth with massive spending for Mitchell...because that district was winnable for the Rats. I saw very little advertising for the liberal lady who ran against Republican Rick Renzi in another Phoenix area district, and Renzi won.
