Kelli Ward Beats John McCain in New AZ Poll
breitbart.com ^ | 8/21/15 | Michelle Moons

Posted on 08/21/2015 10:43:05 AM PDT by cotton1706

Arizona State Senator Kelli Ward, challenging U.S. Senator Sen. John McCain, leads the five-term Washington insider for the first time in a new poll. Her lead stands at nine percent.

Ward was the choice of 45 percent of the registered Arizona voters polled, while McCain only garnered 36 percent. 1,271 of the more than 1,400 voters polled say they intend to vote in the 2016 primary election. Approximately one fifth remained undecided at this early stage of the race.

Independent polling company Gravis Marketing conducted the August 15 poll. It surveyed 844 Republican primary voters and 427 Democratic.

These new McCain versus Ward results vary significantly from May.

Public Policy Polling results then included 600 Arizona voters, 300 marked as Republican primary voters. In that early poll a Ward-McCain matchup gave Ward 31 percent and McCain 44 percent with 25 percent undecided.

it this continues, he’ll resign “for medical reasons”. Which will be true, because after Trump called him out, his head exploded.

Trump counters by going to AZ to take out MCcain in the primary supporting his opponent. He may do just that to take out McNasty

I’m not at all sold on Ward.

Personally, I’m looking at Alexander Meluskey.

Arizona has a tendency to repeatedly reelect sitting Senators well past their expiration date: Barry Goldwater and Carl Hayden, for example. If his opponent retains her lead and is determined by the GOP-E to be able to be absorbed into the Washington Borg, he is likely to be encouraged to retire. Maybe the new Interstate 11 will be named after him, or possibly a Navy vessel.

What do you think of Mr. Trump's immigration plan? What direction do you want the USA to take on immigration?

PLEASE COMMENT & SHARE!

Remember, Sen. McCain was a ring leader in the Gang of 8 "immigration reform" plan #ShakeupDC #WashingtonCartel

...I bet McCain finds a reason to retire.

It says everything about his family that they haven't locked him in a padded room somewhere where he can spend the rest of his life without doing any more permanent damage to the US.

Why does it have to be a female? They group up and turn to liberal “women’s issues”.

I have to agree, as should any real conservative. All else being equal, a man is the only reliable conservative bet for public office. I know this ticks off a lot of FReepers, but it's the truth.

If you don't think men and women are different in fundamental, substantial ways, then you need to reassess your credentials as a conservative, and go hang out in the Leftist camp.

Since she’s benefitting from the Trump Effect, wouldn’t it be glorious if Trump actually stumped for her, in AZ?

He has started already. "He is a hero because he was captured. I like people who weren't captured". He will grind McCain to powder for calling his supporters crazies.

I do believe that I read somewhere about Trump mentioning some guy’s name to run against McLame. Wish I could remember more details but photographic memory ran out of film that day.
