Arizona has always had a democrat territory in and around Tucson. It elect Mo Udall to Congress back in '70 or '72. So that is nothing new. Phoenix was the conservative stronghold and is a larger metro area than Tucson. The rest of the state was probably more conservative than liberal but lightly populated. Loading in a bunch of 'rat voters to counteract the Phoenix electorate is all that would really be necessary.

It’s already a “blue state.” 5 out of 9 US Representatives from Arizona are Rats in safe seats.

Phoenix is not a Republican “stronghold.”

Liberals heading south to a non-state tax state? Then they change the state. See Florida and watch out Texas.

Hey Republicans!
What’s that about the Hispanic vote being naturally conservative and Republican?
Look to Arizona if you want to see what happens after amnesty.

Good.
Let it happen sooner than later. The sooner the dems ruin our society the sooner we can begin the inevitable violence that will lead to either removing the bulk of the Marxists from America or lead to them ruling over their subjects without opposition.
Either way, I doubt I'll be around to see the outcome, but I sure do hope there are enough patriots left in this country to guide us back to the path of prosperity.

"Arizona has a national reputation for hard-core conservatism, but it's inevitable that Democrats will hold sway in the state as the Latino population grows and independent voters surge"
And now the real reason why the Feds fought to keep Arizona from enforcing their border....
To: oldbill
Ummmmm you can’t use Arizona as the first example. Look to California.

Sure all the scumbags that destroyed California have moved in to destroy Arizona.

I fear as Rome went, so will America. It is just a question of time and the biggest contribution to our fall is the Democratic Party. This Democratic party is controlled by registered voters that are really communists thinkers and most just don't get it. It has taken over the greater part of the MSM, Federal Government, and the educational system. It cannot hold our forever the Constitutional freedoms that are left.
To: Starstruck
The process is inevitable.

This is the extreme leftist Cronkite bunch in Tempe. They’re counting on amnesty and the takeover of Arizona by Mexican Nationals and other Hispanics sneaking in from Central and South America.

To: Coronal
Multiple things are happening in Arizona. Some of which might be misinterpreted in this article.
1) redistricting has had an obvious positive affect for democrats.
2) The increase in independents in Arizona should not be interpreted as republicans moving left.
3) there are still more registered republicans in the state (35%) than democrats (30%) with the balance 33 percent independents (yes almost as many as republicans)
4) I live in the east valley (very, very conservative) and most of my neighbors and friends have registered as independents because the GOP is not conservative enough. There is no way any of us vote blue.
5) elections are held when snow birds are present in the state. Mostly from northern somewhat liberal states. Many are registered to vote in AZ .

I left the dreadful People’s Republic of Tucson six months ago. In the Northern Arizona community where I live now, everyone owns a gun and a dog and we have next to zero crime.
But the Republicans insisted on tossing their natural voters here into a crazy, gerrymandered Democrat district. They lose because they want to lose. No group of people could be as deliberately stupid as the GOP.
