Former Maricopa County, Ariz. Sheriff Joe Arpaio narrowly lost his campaign to get his old job back Friday, ending a nearly successful comeback for one of the state's most polarizing figures.

Arpaio, who held the position from 1993-2017, lost the GOP primary for the job to 40-year department veteran and Arpaio aide Jerry Sheridan by just over 6,000 votes when the Maricopa County Elections Department called the race. The two contenders were separated just 1 percent, 37-36.

I think for men they have to find retiremnt work of some kind. I know a guy who took up having merchandise at Flea markets.
Spends week days driving around to thrift stores then sets up at a flea market on weekends.....Loves it!

Go home, Joe.

My MIL went to high school with him. Quite a forgettable person.

There is a big difference between “work” and being a slave to a system that will toss you out on your ass in a second.

I’m not too concerned. Tiprireni lost to Lesko, and Scottsdale is a more conservative district.

For the record.......if you don’t work you will just die
Working is living

There is some truth to that.

I expect to die in my home office, in the middle of a SCRUM meeting, just after I gave my status.

Yeah. I loved the guy when I lived in AZ but there were plenty that didn’t.

Has Joe ever released the information about 0buttWad’s Bcertificate?

Nope.

But his lead investigator, Mike Zullo, grifted a lot of vacations on the beaches of Waikiki looking for it.

Sippin' daiquiris and investigating Obama, all on donated funds. Great job if you can get it.
