PHOENIX, AZ — Gov. Doug Ducey will reportedly announce John McCain's successor at a news conference Tuesday morning. The Arizona Republic reported the conference is scheduled for 10 a.m. PST at the Arizona State Capitol building in Phoenix.
Noooo...I think Ducey has shown he knows his fate if he did that.
Jon Kyle confirmed by Fox News.
I expect a placeholder
John Kyl it is confirmed
He's been there before, and would be a perfect two-year "stand-in" if he doesn't want to run again in 2020 to complete McCain's term.
I have voted for him in the past. He is nothing like John McCain. He has much more class.
It’s John Kyl, good appointment!!!
Yep, what a nasty family. Ducey probably considered the optics of passing down seats to family members like a freaking throne and made a sound choice in John Kyl. Hopefully, this means we’re finally done with McCains in elected office, knock on wood.
Gov. Ducey....nice pick...
Doesn’t matter. Cindy McCain is worth about 300 million and there are a list of people willing to donate money to ducey if he appoints a McCain.
I believe the governor knows there would be a major schlitz storm if he appointed a spawn of the maverick.
I hope that is NOT fake news...
Neither McCain would bring any peace to this Congress..both are two peas from the same pod..
Cindy showing her ignorance again, but jumping out in front of the Gov...That Gov. make a good choice in not choosing either dumb blonds...
FOX JUST ANNOUNCED ...CINDY MCCAIN SAID JON KYLE will be the new Senator of AZ..
While all the attention was on Meghan's eulogy, I missed the comments about Cindy's eulogy.
Select his 110 year old Mother.
I may be wrong in regards to my respects. But she is the only McCain I’d like to see replace the dopey departed Senator.
I know. I was trying not to be one of many posting the same article. I was the one in a hurry to post.
Kyl has agreed to serve at least through the end of the year, a representative for Ducey said. If he opts to step down after the end of the session, the Republican governor would be required to appoint another replacement, the aide said.
The governor, who has long called Kyl a mentor, contacted the former senator in the hours following McCain’s Aug. 25 death. The two have forged a close bond and are like-minded, pro-growth conservatives.
The Arizona Republic reported the conference is scheduled for 10 a.m. PST at the Arizona State Capitol building in Phoenix.
Why is this given in PST? Arizona stays on MST.
If not his mother, his wife.
No, not the wife he called a c__t. His first wife, Carol.
The one he divorced leaving her with three children to raise.
He is a placeholder. Ducey has made the safe choice and kicked the can down the road.
