Thread: Former sheriff stirring 'disaster in Arizona'

Former sheriff stirring 'disaster in Arizona'

An immigration enforcement activist says Joe Arpaio's entrance into the U.S. Senate race in Arizona will likely allow a pro-amnesty Republican to win the nomination.

The former Maricopa County Arizona sheriff, known for his tough tactics dealing with illegal immigrants, has decided to enter the race to replace retiring Republican Jeff Flake. On Friday, Congresswoman Martha McSally (R) announced that she is also running. Candidate Dr. Kelli Ward, who has been endorsed by Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC), welcomes Arpaio into the race. But William Gheen, president of ALIPAC and a longtime supporter of the former sheriff, thinks this is a big mistake.

"It's a disaster," Gheen tells OneNewsNow. "Joe Arpaio is creating a disaster in Arizona [with] his entry against Dr. Kelli Ward, who's already staked out a conservative anti-illegal immigration candidate claim to run for that seat. He will now split the conservative voters, and he is increasing the chances that pro-amnesty Rep. Martha McSally will win the primary."


Gheen says it would have been better for Arpaio to wait.

"If Joe Arpaio wants to be in the Senate, all he needs to do is wait six to twelve months for John McCain to drop out and then run for McCain's old seat," the ALIPAC president suggests.

As of now, he predicts McSally will be the darling of the Republican establishment.

"She's a full-blown amnesty supporter. McSally is the one who will receive the U.S. Chamber of Commerce D.C. insider swamp creature support that is always present in these Senate campaigns," Gheen submits.

Joe Arpaio ​could be a very good senator in Arizona

This is a tough deal. Sheriff Joe has carried our banner for almost 50 years, fighting illegal immigration, the drug cartels, the courts and ultimately a corrupt Obama administration supporting them all. He's put his life on the line as a law enforcement officer in the FBI, DEA and as Sheriff of Maricopa County every day for our cause since 1957, and before that put it on the line for our nation in North Korea.

Up to this point, the Senate Race in Arizona was about policy. Joe has turned it on its ear to one of loyalty.

Well unfortunately, we are now most likely to have pro-Amnesty RINO Rep. Martha McSally, who is on ALIPAC's Cantor List (View) and has her own Amnesty Supporter Profile (View)

because Arpaio unwisely jumped in the race to play the role of vote spoiler splitting the conservative vote.

The most likely outcome of this race is that Arpaio just elected McSally.

I agree. Wasn't Kelly Ward leading the polls against McSally?

Yea, Kelli Ward had a strong showing and had assembled a very competant and professional campaign around her effort. But Arpaio has jumped in with his star power to fundraise off this and in doing so has tilted the race to the corrupt DC establishment.

I'm so sad he has decided to do this. I have seen the vote split in NC several times when more than one real conservative runs. The RINO ends up winning every time. This is how we got Thom Tillis.

Vote splitting candidates is also how evil Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham keep getting elected despite their disgusing liberal votes!
