Arizona Republicans reject racist ex-Sheriff Joe Arpaio a third time [1]

['Rob Beschizza']

Date: 2022-08-11

Though his time at the top was long, Joe Arpaio's racist policies as Maricopa County Sheriff eventually got him beaten at the polls and convicted in court—a charge for which he was pardoned by then-president Donald Trump. Local Republicans are sick of him, all the same, delivering a third primary defeat since his political downfall, this time in a suburban mayoral race.

Arpaio is insinuating election fraud, as is au courant among far-right candidates irrespective of any evidence.
