Feeling some relief following the Arizona results. Old Man Arpaio lost the primary. The Senate seat in question has its candidates now, ready for the November election; both are women. As for the US Congress Representatives, Ann Kirkpatrick, who got all baited-and-switched in the FOX News snafu months ago, won her primary and will be one of the November candidates for the district centered around Tucson, Arizona. A decade or so ago, Kirkpatrick was a Flagstaff, Arizona resident and was the US. representative for that district. The recent death of Senator John McCain left Arizona in a subdued mood, a welcome change from the usual noise of election publicity. Arizona's governor is required by law to choose a candidate, or was it to choose a replacement outright, for this seat. And that too could be concerning.
