Love the writer for this article on the nutjobs running for a heavily Republican seat in Arizona.
"Vying for the open seat, in a race that will be decided Tuesday, are Abe Hamadeh, a 32-year-old Army reservist who ran for and lost the 2022 attorney general’s race, and still refuses to concede the result; Blake Masters, 37, one of Peter Thiel’s political pet projects and notorious gun whisperer, who ran for and lost the 2022 Senate race in the state and has at least sort of accepted the outcome; Anthony Kern, a state senator and Jan. 6 attendee who is under indictment with nine felony counts for his role as a fake elector in the attempt to overturn the 2020 election and who is also known for going on a pro-Hitler radio show; Trent Franks, a tea party type who held the seat until 2017, when it came out that he had offered a female staffer $5 million to let him impregnate her; and Ben Toma, the Arizona House speaker, who is endorsed by the outgoing representative from the district. That outgoing representative would be Debbie Lesko, whose signature legislation in Congress was a ban on a gas stove ban that … didn’t actually exist. The “QAnon Shaman,” Jacob Angeli-Chansley, the painted face of the Capitol riot, was also in the race for a little while, attempting a run as the Libertarian candidate.
