I don't see anybody posting Arizona results, so here is what I found. The Secy of State is posting results by CD, with different per cent complete for each one. I will try to summarize the highlights.

From http://www.azsos.gov/...
Clinton 138,836 50.3%
Obama 112,567 40.8%
Edwards 18,181 6.6%

From http://www.azsos.gov/...
McCain 175,816 47.7%
Romney 121,602 33.0%
Huckabee 32,842 8.9%

This is with somewhere around 80% counted.

Dr. Bruce Merrill at ASU released a new poll last night showing Kyl ahead of Pederson 46 - 36 with 18 don't knows.

He also found Janet Napolitano crushing any of the 4 Republican nominees for governor. Our primary is on Sept. 12th.

The details are at http://www.kaet.asu.edu/...

He did not poll the race of most interest to me, the AZ-05 with Harry Mitchell challenging incumbent JD Hayworth, nor the open AZ-08 down South.

He did poll some of the propositions and there are a lot this time around, something like 19. It looks like the amendment to the state constitution to ban same sex marriage and deny benefits to domestic partners is going to fail badly. However there are a bunch of anti immigrant ones that look to pass easily.

Dr. Bruce Merrill at ASU released his monthly poll last night, and has Senator Jon Kyl leading Jim Pederson 43 - 29, with 28% undecided. People also approve of President Bush's job by 50 - 48, with 2% no opinion.

Now the bright spots: Gov. Napolitano's job approval is much better at 72 - 23 - 5, despite, or perhaps because of, the huge number of vetoes she has put onto the Republican legislature's series of bills. And the question that gives us hope of dumping JD Hayworth, "The Republican Party has controlled both houses of the U.S. Congress for several years. After this fall's elections would you prefer to see the Republicans or the Democrats have control of Congress?" is answered D - 45, R - 39, Don't Know - 16.

I ran an election this morning at my kids elementary school in a mostly Republican suburb of Phoenix, namely Chandler. It is a smallish, Montessori-based charter school including 2 year olds through 6th grade. Yesterday the elementary age kids were encouraged to register for today's voting. I brought in a ballot box covered with shiny wrapping paper to generate additional interest. 41 signed up and I heard from parents that the kids were very excited about casting real votes! Read More

Labor Day Trivia Puzzle: Antitrust Vote

In honor of Labor Day, I present a trivia puzzle for the political history buffs and google experts.

In response to big business abuses, the Sherman Antitrust Act became law in 1890. This Act passed the Senate by a vote of 51-1 on April 8, 1890, and the House by a unanimous vote of 242-0 on June 20, 1890. President Benjamin Harrison signed the bill into law on July 2, 1890.

Who was the lone Senator to vote against this Act ? For full credit use the internet only. Points will be deducted for going to the library for the print version of the Congressional Record. Good Luck !

In 1998 AZ voters passed (51.2% to 48.8%) the Clean Elections law, providing for public funding of elections to candidates who forego large private donations. This year Proposition 106 proposes to overturn that law. Supporters of 106 are gathering signatures to put it on the Nov. ballot. That effort just hit a big roadblock. Read More

I live in a Republican area SE of Phoenix. The real election to represent me at the state house and in Congress is usually the Republican primary, because in the November general the Dem, if there even is one, usually loses. Now I find myself on the verge of registering as a Republican so I can vote in "their" primary. This week I am invited to a fundraising event and it has set me to thinking. Read More
