Jesse Kelly (my son-in-law) (that is for full disclosure of my bias :-)) made the official announcement Friday that he is once again running for the Arizona CD-8 seat in the special election resulting from the resignation of Gabrielle Giffords. He came within 1.5% of un-seating the two term incumbant in 2010. Let's win it this time Jesse!

I really hope he pull this out, but it’s going to be tough as all the sentiment is going to go to whoever the Dem is at this point due to how much the media will be involved in it.

“Unofficially, over 80,000 republicans cast ballots in the primary election, far in excess of the 64,076 ballots cast in 2006, the most recent contested primary, and eclipsing the 52,671 ballots cast last election cycle in 2008. Their selection of Jesse Kelly, a strong conservative republican with weighty support from the local tea party movement, suggests it was conservative republicans who were strongly motivated to get out and vote this cycle.”

I wish him Good Luck on his run......I have the feeling he will need it as the Dems will likely drag out Gabby Giffords at EVERY rally for their nominee.

I hope he wins but I sometimes wonder if southern Arizona would know what to do with actual conservative representation in either house of congress. 100 years of statehood and with the exception of Goldwater, we’re still looking.

For some reason the Paul supporters targeted him for defeat last go round - they were apparently successful.

Here’s an e-mail from the campaign I received today:

Dear ______________,

Last Friday, I announced my candidacy for Congress in the Arizona District 8 special election. The issues facing our country are just as important as they were in 2010. We must get the economy growing again so companies and small businesses can create more jobs. We must secure the border and we must stand up for America.

First, let me say that no one is happy with the circumstances surrounding this special election. While Congresswoman Giffords and I ran against each other last election, she always worked hard for her district. We continue to pray for her full recovery and for the other victims of the tragic shooting in January of 2011.

Because of this mid-term vacancy, we have a unique opportunity for a true conservative to win. The campaign schedule is very compressed because this is a special election. The primary is on April 17th and early voting starts on March 22nd. We only have a few weeks to get our message to the voters.

We announced just a few days ago and Citizens United has already endorsed our campaign. Read why they are supporting us by going to this link. [http://cupvf.com/]

Besides Citizens United, we also have Sheriff Joe Arpaio and Congressman Trent Franks on our side. But, the person we most need to help us is you. Please watch this video from our announcement [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6-IdCkeE7o] and join with us to win this important election. If you agree with me that we must act quickly to save our nation, please consider making a donation today. [https://secure.piryx.com/donate/rsGvFGGn/Kelly-for-Congress/win] Even $20 or $50 will be helpful in winning this swing seat.

You can also follow the campaign on one of our social media pages. Just click on these links, Facebook , Twitter, or LinkedIn.

Thank you for your help in winning the special election and in making a difference in the future of our nation.

Sincerely,

Jesse Kelly

P.S. We also released our first web ad last week. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fx256ciKDA] Please take the time to view it. If you agree with our message, please consider making your contribution to our campaign today. [https://secure.piryx.com/donate/rsGvFGGn/Kelly-for-Congress/win]

Congratulations, CanadianYankee, on having such an impressive son-in-law. I don’t live in AZ but sent a couple of modest donations to Jessee in 2010.

To other FReepers, please donate if you can. This seat would be quite a swing from mid-leftist to very conservative.
