PPP polls AZ-03, oh my god

That primary was another textbook case for irv or at least a runoff in primaries.

Quayle actually trailing? Not just in trouble but trailing in a poll? Lolsson.

I knew this race was a toss up. but I thought I was crazy. Quayle is the worst candidate ever.

We knew Quayle was a very bad candidate right around primary time... but afterwards I heard nothing more and just figured the wave would pull him through easy. I might not have thought that in a more rural district, incidentally.

Of course, we may be drawing too much from just one poll here.

What will the Arizona map look like after 2010, exactly? They got a nonpartisan commission and VRA-protected seats and will gain several.
Probably wouldn't save this bloke unless he turns out surprisingly good (and no Zach, Sali's loss was not due to Sali being Sali alone. Minnick was a wellknown moderate candidate.)

Not really. He's old.
