Eli Crane (R-AZ) has been given a platform by "Republican leaders" to spread this bullshit.

Wow. This part of AZ does have a reputation for electing unhinged crazies on the GOP side, even in competitive seats, but their nomination of said nutjobs has been our superpower in terms of overcoming GOP lean here more often than we otherwise would. Crane is working hard to give us a shot...

AZ-2 is R+6 per Wikipedia. Is his opponent this year any good?

R+6 is out of reach even for a first tier candidate here unless Crane is first destroyed with the narrow margin of GOP folks to whom sanity still matters. Our candidate is former Prez of the Navajo Nation, he’s first tier but not ideal electorally given the anti-Indian bias in much of the swing voter population.
