@Captain Who I suppose so, I’m just a bit paranoid about it is all.

2018-03-15 02:07:36 UTC  

It is a legit thing to be paranoid about.

“I have a reputation of doing things that directly help my constituents,” Lesko told Fox News. “People in my district believe in everything that everyone else in the nation believes in: securing the border … national security, a good economy, good jobs. But they also really care about local issues, and I have a history of helping them with that.”

Many of those national issues, according to Lesko’s campaign website, echo some of President Trump’s agenda items, such as building a border wall, strengthening the country’s missile defense program against potential threats from North Korean leader Kim Jong Un (who her website calls an “insane madman”) and protecting the Second Amendment.

Aside from those issues, Lesko also wants to talk about domestic violence. She said she was able to leave an abusive husband about 25 years ago.

“Domestic violence is a very prevalent problem, and it can happen to anyone. It doesn’t matter what their status is, what their educational background is,” she said. “It happens to so many women, and I just want them to know they can get out of it and become successful, because I did it. I’m living proof of it.”

She has since remarried and has three children.

Lesko first got into politics with her local Republican Party, starting off as a district chairman, an elected volunteer position. She rose through the ranks, becoming a state Republican Party officer before she won a state House seat. She served as a representative for six years and as a state senator for three.

Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, has endorsed Lesko, his office confirmed to Fox News.

This is the Republican candidate.

I think that Arizona's best chance is probably going to be McSally, she'll vote the way she's supposed to.

2018-03-15 02:08:09 UTC  

For Frank's old seat.

2018-03-15 02:08:13 UTC  

But progressives trying to pretend as a conservative democrat anywhere but Pennsylvania will come off as disingenuous as Hillary Clinton quoting the bible.

2018-03-15 02:08:28 UTC  

I mentioned it last night, Pennsylvania Democrat is a category of its own.

2018-03-15 02:08:58 UTC  

Tipirneni knows that she is running as a Democrat in a conservative district, but she doesn’t dwell on that. For her, it’s not about a political party so much as it is about representing the district.

“One of the big reasons I decided to run is I’m so frustrated by the lack of forward progress, divisiveness and standing solely on a partisan [ground],” Tipirneni told Fox News.

“I’m looking to bring people together to the table to have a conversation,” she continued. “A lot of folks feel alienated. I would fight on their behalf and not fight about ideology.”

Her campaign website pushes for more bipartisan solutions to hot-button issues. For example, on the Second Amendment, Tipirneni says she supports the rights of “law-abiding Americans to obtain firearms through legal channels to protect their homes, themselves and their families, and for hunting and sport.” But she also supports “commonsense gun reform,” such as eliminating certain background check loopholes.

The top of the Second Amendment section on Tipirneni's site declares: “When progressives and conservatives work together, we can accomplish great things.”

While Tipirneni has volunteered on other campaigns, this is her first foray into politics. She said she isn’t “looking to build [her] political resume” but just wants to help those in her district.

“The reason I’m doing this is because I am a constituent as well in this district, and I’ve spent many years frustrated, feeling that I don’t have a voice in D.C.,” she said.

2018-03-15 02:09:05 UTC  

This is Democrat.

2018-03-15 02:09:13 UTC  

Looks bad, actually.

2018-03-15 02:09:40 UTC  

The senate seat probably will be McSally vs. Sinema

2018-03-15 02:10:04 UTC  

This is the article I'm quoting for the special election.

2018-03-15 02:10:17 UTC  

Dem is against the border wall, a HUGE issue in Arizona, so hopefully we can win.

2018-03-15 02:10:20 UTC  

oh, the potential McCain one?

2018-03-15 02:10:45 UTC  

No, the April special election.

2018-03-15 02:10:50 UTC  

For Trent Frank's seat.

2018-03-15 02:10:56 UTC  

In the House.

2018-03-15 02:10:58 UTC  

Lesko seems pretty good

2018-03-15 02:11:01 UTC  

ah, okay, thanks, I was pretty confused

2018-03-15 02:11:26 UTC  

Dem running on healthcare to appeal to the elderly voting base.

2018-03-15 02:11:31 UTC  

Hopefully it'll work out, we need some sort of momentum

2018-03-15 02:11:33 UTC  

Rep running on immigration.

2018-03-15 02:12:05 UTC  

We need to spam pro-immigration spiel around this area.

2018-03-15 02:12:12 UTC  

So the usual Dem points

2018-03-15 02:12:23 UTC  

REALLY far-left positions.

2018-03-15 02:12:50 UTC  

Scare people who don't want their district to be 20 percent white.

2018-03-15 02:13:32 UTC  

One thing to look at is how the blue checkmark squad will influence this. Twitter can be a powerful tool

2018-03-15 02:13:47 UTC  

Trump might hold a rally here.

2018-03-15 02:13:51 UTC  

I would love to see that.

2018-03-15 02:14:09 UTC  

Announce his endorsements for Lesko and the senate candidate.

2018-03-15 02:14:14 UTC  

I'd like to see how multiple rallies would work out

2018-03-15 02:14:14 UTC  

TRUMP TRUMP
TRUMP TRUMP
TRUMP TRUMP
TRUMP TRUMP
TRUMP TRUMP

2018-03-15 02:14:33 UTC  

He's going to do a ton of rallies later this year,

2018-03-15 02:14:33 UTC  

Whenever he holds rallies the morale goes up pretty significantly

2018-03-15 02:14:42 UTC  

This is a very red district, then again, so is everything.

2018-03-15 02:15:13 UTC  

He needs to fix his approval, fix the GOP's position in the generic ballot, and hold a ton of rallies in these areas.

2018-03-15 02:15:39 UTC  

Hopefully he throws one of these high-up dems in prison like a week before the election happens or something like that.
