SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Rep. Martha McSally, R-Ariz., took home a key endorsement Wednesday from the National Border Patrol Council as she looks to show off her immigration credentials and break free from a contentious GOP Senate primary battle set for Aug. 28.
McSally, a two-term congresswoman from Tucson, was flanked by national and local border officials who heaped praise on her work to curb illegal immigration and as the only person in the race to be a consistent voice for these issues. She won the endorsement over Dr. Kelli Ward, a chief critic of McSally, who has tried to make immigration a central issue of her campaign.
"There is only one person in this race on either side who is working with President Trump and our border patrol agents to finally secure our border," McSally said in her remarks. She proceeded to rattle off a list of Trump's immigration-related goals, including building a wall along the southern border and increasing the number of border patrol agents.
...
"To us, she was a no-brainer," Brandon Judd, president of the National Border Patrol Council, told the Washington Examiner following the announcement. "I spend an awful lot of time on the Hill, I spend an awful lot of time talking with senators, House of Representatives, and Martha McSally has always been receptive."
"For border security purposes, she is the person," said Judd, a vocal ally of Trump.

Ingrate!!
Last thing any of us want is another Mc@ senator. She can pass go and head straight to hell.
Arpio is being savagely manipulated by mccain type consultants. He a plant to take out Dr Kelli Ward and get McScab elected.
I supported Joe with money from VA when he was running for Sheriff, now he is just helping the Cheap Labor Express get another Amnesty Senator.
He is a good man that protected us all from illegal aliens!! He is a national hero!! He was wrongfully arttacked by the communist courts and totally pardoned by our beloved president Trump. I pray for his enormous victory!!
Splitting the conservative vote is what RINOs do to win. Arpaio is being used to do that here. I wonder who talked the old guy into doing this?
Yes !! That rino mc sally needs to get the hell out and get a real job!! Go Arpio!! Stomp the rinos!!
he’s a tool. he’s going to cost the republicans a seat in the senate. if we get majority leader schumer, we will have useful idiots like yourself to thank.
Do you idiots want a damned rino again in Arizona?? Did you not get enough of that open border communist crap from mc Cain and that other jack ass you elected- Flake?? What are you people doing to yourselves?
It would be good if McSally got out but she won’t because Arpaio is giving her exactly what she wants. I was actually thinking the 86 year old should get out. I don’t think that what America really needs right now is another 90 year old Senator.
read. think. then post.
You can say that again woman!! Get lost.
Kelly A. Conway gets my vote.
No. Love Sheriff Joe, but he's way too old to be seeking federal office, and he's also splitting the conservative vote.
Oh, please curb your enthusiasm. Federal unions are toothless.
Go go go Sherrif Joe!!no more flakes!! No more song birds!! Go go go.
Go go go Sherrif Joe!!no more flakes!! No more song birds!! Go go go.
