    AZ: Pearce and the people vs. a corporate sock puppet

    Pearce and the people vs. a corporate sock puppet

    Prior to making the decision to run for the Senate, Pearce explored the possibility of running for Congress against Rep. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz.

    Apparently that didn’t sit too well with Flake and now Flake’s brother-in-law, Kevin Gibbons, an immigration attorney, whose $63,630 war chest is made up of contributions primarily from business owners from outside of his West Mesa district, is running against Pearce in the primary.

    The majority of Gibbons’ contributors are business owners who were perfectly happy hiring unauthorized workers, are unhappy with Pearce’s employer sanctions law and have contributed to court battles to try to halt the law as well as to the Stop Illegal Hiring initiative, which seeks, through its misleading title, to completely undermine the law.

    To bad Pearce didn't feel his chances were good against Flake. Rep Flake is an amnesty supporter.

    If this Gibbons character wins, I would recommend the recount of the vote. Is this another place where unqualified illegals have slid into the voting system?
