Letters to the Editor for Dec. 4
Lake’s takeRegarding Kari Lake’s statement that “Arizonans know B.S. when they see it”, she’s probably correct. It certainly speaks to her skills as a campaigner, and probably to the partisan divide, that 1.2 million of them decided to vote for her anyway.Citizens for Sanity: EpilogueArizona just elected a full-term Democratic senator, as well as a Democratic governor and secretary of state. It looks like the real “citizens for sanity” prevailed after all.
Like the Irish, the Germans and the African Americans before them, they have come to realize that to help their communities, they need to vote and put their candidates in office. Perhaps in recognition of how our population has evolved, our political system should also evolve. Rank choice voting has accomplished this in several states and cities. Anybody can run in a primary and the top candidates go on to the general election. If nobody gets more than 50% of the vote, there is a runoff between the top two candidates.AccountabilityWe should all be grateful that the elections are over for another two years.
I am thankful they were willing to run an uphill battle in a district that was specifically gerrymandered to prevent Democrats from winning.I am thankful for their endless hours canvassing door-to-door to meet the people of LD17 and hear their concerns. Pima County Supervisor Christy’s “no” vote on Nov. 22 on the election canvass, without evidence, fed the falsehoods of election deniers.He voted against verifying the county’s 2020 general election results, including his own victory, protesting what he said was possible fraud elsewhere. He wrongly predicted problems would emerge.
