America’s ‘toughest sheriff’ Joe Arpaio loses re-election bid in Arizona



by UPI8 Nov 2016

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9 (UPI) — The Arizona sheriff who has spent more than 20 years touting himself as the toughest in America, partly because of his harsh stance against illegal immigration, has lost his re-election campaign.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio, nationally known for operating a tent camp where he imprisons people he has identified as illegal immigrants, lost his bid for a seventh re-election as top law enforcement official in Maricopa County, Ariz., to retired police Sgt. Paul Penzone.

Arpaio, 84, who first won election in 1993, has drawn criticism for his tactics against undocumented immigrants in the county, but has been consistently re-elected by voters at least partially because of those tactics.

In the weeks leading up to the election, several groups in the state worked to mobilize Hispanic voters, knocking on doors, driving buses and nudging people to vote early.

Arpaio’s campaign was weakened in the months leading up to Election Day as he awaits a court date for criminal contempt charges for ignoring court orders to stop racially profiling Hispanic drivers as part of his quest to catch undocumented immigrants.

Arpaio admitted he was a little “nervous” on Election Day, which makes sense considering the upcoming court date and the millions of dollars poured into a group backing Penzone called Maricopa Strong.

He will be on the Trump Team defending OUR borders.

We can thank George Soros for him losing the election with all the money he poured into getting him out of office, but no matter we may have lost the battle but we will win the war. Joe can now work for a much bigger and better cause, rebuilding our country.

U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., has won a sixth term

That's okay....actually it's better this way and George Soro's wasted $2million to defeat Sheriff Arpaio.

Sheriff Arpaio got a promotion to DC and he will have more control in the rule of law, illegal aliens and 'DEPORTATIONS'
along the entire Southern Border.

Donald Trump should make Joe Arpaio the new head of DHS or USCIS!
