Election Results

Sorry for the long delay in posting. I was out of town for a bit and supposedly I wasn't the only one. Russell Pearce cleaned up in District 18 and Mesa Issues covered Gibbons' response pretty good. I think Kevin is a little off on this one. First, when looking at turnout between Districts 18 and 19, 18 always runs about half. Second, to overcome a margin of defeat liek he did, he didn't do that great of a job turning out his voters. He should have realized that when campaigns go negative like they did in this race, people sometimes choose to stay home- especially in a primary. Finally, I'm no expert but it seemed to me like it was too much too late. He needed to start a month before he did. I read many people saying they got up to 10 mailers the day before election and even some after! Some of that money should have been spent early on introducing Gibbons (I still don't know much about him).
Anyway, this is all relevent because it shows that people approve of what's been done on the immigration front. Also, that Russell Pearce has done many things other than just immigration and feel he will continue to do a good job.
Here are the full results from the election.
