U.S. Senate:
J.D. Hayworth – Endorsed. He is not perfect but he is noticeably more conservative than McCain.

Primary Endorsements for Arizona Republican Candidates AND Maricopa County Republican Candidates

Many of you have asked me who I support and have endorsed for the upcoming republican Primaries.
Further below is a list of candidates and incumbents that I support and ask you to support also. However, before I share those with you I want you to know that there are several Republican incumbents who worked against the passage of SB1070. If you go to www.azleg.gov and watch the archived video and listen to the vote in both the House and Senate you will hear some very telling things about certain Republicans who did not support the passage of SB1070 but voted for it only because they knew if they didn’t you would have voted them out of office. Now those same members are campaigning saying that they were a sponsor of the bill and they were a supporter of SB1070 all through the bill’s legislative process. So with that said, if you don’t see a Republican incumbent’s name on this list then you may want to do a little research of your own.
