LOL. Would be 100x more hilarious if Latinos turned out in large enough numbers to give Kirkpatrick a last minute comeback.

Watch Latino's come out big time and make up 11.5 or 12% of the electorate nationally and hand Arizona to Hillary.

No kidding.  This is like locker room bulletin board material.

I'm thinking we'll see an avalanche of Latino turnout this time thanks to all the anxiety about Trump. Clinton is already slightly leading in AZ, and she may win by a bigger margin than anyone expects thanks to that.

In 2012 32% of the population (based on Census) was Latino, but only 18% of voters were Latino. While there are undocumented immigrants counted in the Census, she is not wrong that Latinos don't vote in AZ in proportion to their share of the population. If they did, she probably would never have been elected and Trump would certainly lose.   But as Latinos continue to grow in share, even with low participation the state may reach a tipping point like NM where it doesn't matter. And 2016 may be that election tipping point.

I believe you don't understand that you can only vote once in the US. You can look it up.

A moment of clarity for her alcohol-soaked, sun-baked brain! She's not wrong, but maybe things will change.

I wonder if Georgia Democrats could enlist Jan's services for lobbying the Clinton campaign and the DNC to do the right thing? We could pay her in fifths of whatever they drink out there and tacky plastic lawn furniture.

Oh, how much I want to prove her wrong.

I really hope Hillary's ground game is as amazing as it seems.

I hope Latinos come out in droves to vote for Hillary Clinton on election day to prove this old hag wrong.

Yes. Agree.
They should make it, and run it on the Spanish TV channels in Arizona (in addition to the standard English TV outlets).

I never underestimate Jan Brewer's power to piss off the opposition and motivate them to action.

AZ is trending Democratic; it has been since 1996.  McCain's Presidential candidacies have slowed that tide somewhat, but now, AZ's GOP is markedly ambivalent toward Trump, so . . .
