McSally tallies fall behind Sinema according to the official state source.
No, I’m not wrong. Yes, illegals are entering the “Tucson sector” - but they are NOT why Tucson votes for Democrats! Tucson votes for democrats because there are a ton of over-educated hippies attracted to the U of A and a ton of liberal NE/midwest liberal transplants. That has always been true.
Lots of old people voted for Sinema (based on people my wife and I have talked to) based on fears about SS & Medicare. There are also a lot of homosexuals in Vail, AZ - part of Pima County. It is San Francisco, Arizona.
AND McSally ran a poor campaign, largely because she is a poor candidate. There is a reason the Republican Gov won with a large margin and McSally didn’t cruise to victory - and it AIN’T illegals splitting their votes!
Remember Mo Udall? I do! Liberal Democrat representative from Pima County from...drum roll please....1961-1991!
I have the same question… I posted it just has the 5 PM dump came in… And it was taken down as fast as I put it up.
“The left in this country need to be brought to patriot justice.”
Problem 1: Who is going to bring them to justice? I don’t see a patriot army anywhere around. Nor have I seen anyone in power in the state capitols or in leadership in Washington D.C. even speak about this issue, let alone take action on it. These things require organization and logistics...I don’t see that anywhere.
Are we going to lose the Senate after Arizona and Florida.... and where else???
So, the GOP candidate has pulled ahead?
This is such a classic move ….. now watch, -wait until Friday night...………..? Yes, suddenly McSally is pressured to concede as Sinema suddenly leaps ahead by a margin that is clearly making her the winner. Have a nice Weekend folks .
McSally is GOP-E. She could have won this race easily. Her ads sucked. She had so much to clobber Sinema with, but she held back, running a W Bush style campaign.
In 2002, Matt Salmon of the GOP-E led on election night and stood aside as they installed lesbian Janet Napolitano as our governor. They re-counted on the res until she was elected.
So my take is that McSally congratulates Sinema and gets the next one, when Kyl steps down. The despicable Phoenix media said it the other day, “We like both of them and whoever loses can win in 2020.” I hope I’m wrong.
Our votes mean absolutely nothing. That we see clearly.
Typical liberal style...
They have all the recounts in the bag...the Hillary way of voting...
No,no. No. We’re already at 51.
“If this was the Pima Co. drop, we should be ok.”
If.
Elections are life or death to us too, but the difference is we aren’t criminals.
Demography is destiny. AZ will go the way of CA, NV, CO, and VA. Mass immigration, legal and illegal, will make the Dems the permanent majority party within a decade. There is a reason why the Dems have won the popular vote in six out of the last seven Presidential elections.
The ballots are early voting ballots (usually called absentee ballots) that can either be mailed in early or dropped off at a polling place on election day. The ballots that they’re still counting are the ones dropped off on election day. They’re all legitimate ballots IF they were turned in by a voter who signed the ballot and there’s a legitimate time-stamp on the ballot by a poll worker.
Results in this election vary widely by county and by city within the big counties (Maricopa and Pima), so if there are still numerous ballots to be counted in cities that McSally won big, then the vote total could swing back the other way.
Maricopa County looks fishy to me. In the first 950,000 ballots cast that were counted by early Wednesday morning, Sinema only had a 8000 vote lead, but Sinema somehow trounced McSally by about 20,000 votes in the last 150,000 ballots counted since Wednesday morning. That seems highly unlikely to me. The only legitimate explanation for such a sudden change in Sinema’s percentage of the votes would be something like a large number of dropped-off ballots being counted from the college neighborhoods near Arizona State University.
I would think this election can be audited in a recount, where McSally’s team could check for valid signatures on the dropped-off ballots. It’s very surprising to me what happened today in the Maricopa County totals.
“The judge already ruled they will be counted.”
Yes- which is in direct violation of law. So where are the appeals by the GOP? This is a federal election and this can be taken all the way to the USSC. Where is the DOJ? Why isn’t Trump making people aware of it?
will never understand why some people seem happy to lose as long as they have someone to blame.
“Nor have I seen anyone in power in the state capitols or in leadership in Washington D.C. even speak about this issue, let alone take action on it.”
That is more concerning. The deplorables are legion and I will certainly ride to the sound of the guns or to the tweet of the commander in chief.
“They have all the recounts in the bag...the Hillary way of voting...”
Recounts? Hey, get up to speed here...….that’s the old way.
The new way for the Dems is …...make a move on Friday night, then come Monday morning? ….. What? Recount? Oh, sorry …..we
destroyed all the ballots over the weekend. Can’t recount what we don’t have.
Wish you success next time.
Spouse anticipated this. The newly elected Dem Maricopa County Recorder had all polling deliver their ballots to him and have them sequestered. He knew exactly where the ballots were coming from. Spouse believes he purposely cured the areas in Maricopa County where the County Recorder knew Sinema would do well. In politics, perception is everything. There are still 345,000 left to vote and spouse believes the newly elected Dem Maricopa County recorder will count those last, ie., next week.
They say there are still hundreds of thousands of votes out in AZ.
If in fact there are around 600,000 total early ballots to be counted after election day, then there should be roughly 250,000 more ballots to the counted in Maricopa County alone. So this could easily swing back the other way in McSally’s favor, but today was an odd day.
