Just wondering what topic/topics are dominating the upcoming elections in your state... In Arizona its no surprise that "illegal immigration" is the big fight and #1 topic.... Now even the Democrats are running adds telling how tough they will be.....this is about the worst mud-slinging and cheap shot name calling and some outright lies that i have ever seen... both sides are spending Millions to make the other guy look bad....My curiousity makes me wonder what its like where you live.:eek:
 
Illegal immigration, school funding...a dimwit incumbent, a granny, & a kinky vying for gov....what a circus.
 
Main issue here is sale of public lands in order to exclude the public from using them for hunting. The GOP is all about selling off the public lands and ending hunting in Idaho like it is in Texas.
 
AZ Elections

I am not very involved in politics, but it has gotten rediculous here in AZ as far as the mudslinging goes. All they do is rip on each other and say they have a better plan. No info on what the plan is, we are just supposed to believe it is better. Same BS by every cannidate both sides. Makes it hard to pick the lesser of 2 evils.
 
I'd say up here it is the natural gas pipeline and which candidate can pull off the deal with the oil companies, otherwise its the same frivilious BS that goes into any election.
 
All the usual drivel...a lot around election reform....most of the airtime is on whether Ahhhhnold is going to keep his office or not. I'm sure that, wrapped around/inside each issue will be an ample supply of public give away programs and other "great ideas" to further hamstring our school systems...|oo fuggin state!
