Of the people who were hope, most were solidly or leaning blue, 2 refused to talk with us (probably red), and 1 was leaning blue but didn't like Giffords.

Unless there is an unexpected increase in voter turnout, Arizona again will be painted red. I was recently doing some phone banking in Tempe calling independents to survey their choice of the candidate for Congress and after 165 calls I got over 30 answers and almost all people that answered were swayed for the republican candidate. In the state of Arizona, we are separated into thirds of 1/3rd Republican, 1/3rd Democrat and 1/3rd Independent. Therefore, it is up to the independents to decide who will make the decisions for our state. I also believe that if there was a significant increase in voter registration in the Latino/a community, Republican legislatures would not be as quick to create legislation like SB1070.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447692696585680007.post-46221958207450889312010-09-15T11:36:17.002-07:002010-09-15T11:36:17.002-07:00You hit it right on the head!
