Arizona Primary Election Jhon McCain Win

0 comments
Arizona Sen. John McCain struggled with a challenge in the Republican primary in his bid for a fifth term after spending about $ 20 million and take a hard line in his signature issue of immigration.
McCain, who was his party's 2008 presidential candidate, defeated former Congressman JD Hayworth, resistant to anti-historical trend that threatened his candidacy earlier this year and put in a strong position to win reelection in November. Received 57 percent of the primary vote to 31 percent of Hayworth with 53 percent of precincts reporting, according to the Associated Press.
Jim Deakin, a contractor with no experience in electoral politics who competed with Hayworth to support activists Tea Party, had 11.5 percent, the AP reported.
"We won an important victory, for which I am very grateful," after a hard-fought primary, "McCain told supporters. "This is a consequential choice" because of "staggering unemployment in the nation, a shattered housing market" and "a river of red ink that threatens its prosperity."
To shore up his political base, McCain, 73, changed his position on immigration to repair his position with conservatives and tried to tarnish the reputation of Hayworth said Margaret Kenski, a Republican pollster in Tucson. It flooded the airwaves with "devastating" ads, painting Hayworth as a "false conservative" who once sold ways to earn free money from the government in late night infomercials, he said.

Rick Scott Win Florida Election 2010

0 comments
Rick Scott made a surprise victory in elections for governor of Florida on Tuesday night bitter but the bitterness could have taken its toll.

Scott, as a wealthy businessman health, spent more than $ 50 million (over $ 38 million of them his own) to make war on Attorney General Bill McCollum has been declared winner by the multiple media, the leading 46% to 43%. McCollum has led in most polls in the week leading up to Tuesday.


But the campaign got ugly long before Scott won, and his numbers have been affected because of it.

As Scott tried to associate with McCollum accused former Republican Party of Florida Chairman Jim Greer, McCollum played a Solantic fraud claim against a health care company co-founder Scott, calling Scott to release a transcript of a statement he gave in demand. Scott's old company had paid prior to 1.7 billion U.S. dollars in penalties from Medicare.

Attacks have damaged Scott McCollum for the general election? It's hard to say.

While the voting public policy (the only pollster to get this right the primaries) indicates that the index Republicans 46% Scott 33% favorable and unfavorable, Quinnipiac shows a very different picture from 31% favorable and 40% unfavorable.

"Whatever [] Republican candidate emerges basically very battered and bruised leaves and almost toxic to the general, a Florida Democrat said Tuesday night before Scott had sealed the victory.

Scott trails Democrat Alex Sink, both Quinnipiac (33% to 29%) and Mason-Dixon (40% to 24%) surveys, PPP has not issued any general survey of the recent elections. Despite the animosity brewing between Scott and the Republican Party of Florida during this campaign, says RPOF support as the Republican candidate. Bud Chiles Independent candidate polls in adolescence as a wildcard.

Despite Scott may have suffered bruising, which is something every candidate after desires: money. And much of it. If he is willing to continue pouring his own money into the campaign, Scott will be able to grow the state with television, radio and direct mail through the general election.

In some ways, the story of Scott general election is similar to Linda McMahon in Connecticut: a candidate who is vulnerable to attack, but his personal wealth makes him even intimidate the Democrats.

If the vote and the money from Scott are any indication, the election for governor of Florida will be close.

In November, however, Farese said he is voting for Crist.

Former Republican currently earns more Democrats support Meek in the polls. But Meek's new status as a candidate of his party, a multi-murderer and one of the frontrunners nationally black, Democratic-leaning Crist will on all charges and major donors, in an awkward position.


`` I tried to make clear to reduce the Democratic Party,''said U.S. Rep. Alcee Hastings, who was one of the first black member of the Florida Congress since Reconstruction when elected in 1992. `` I can not begin to tell you how bad I am with some Democrats. I do not think it's fair.''

Before the vote in St. Petersburg on Tuesday, Crist called himself `` an independent voice''and argued that Democrats should continue to support him in November. `` I can win,''he said.

In his speech accepting the Republican nomination in Miami, Rubio said, `` I am not a candidate for the opposition. I am not a candidate to be just against the people. I think there's a better way of doing things, and so do the majority of Floridians and Americans.''

Meek, visiting churches in Miami, on Sunday, Greene said he did a better candidate, although he described the campaign as a painful process ``''.

`` I tell the weight of $ 26 million is pretty heavy, and gave us the strength to win against all financial forecasts,''he said. `` I think my primary campaign needed to present our case.''

Meek is planning a victory lap around the state on Wednesday, with stops in Miami, Hollywood, Boca Raton, Orlando and St. Petersburg. Rubio and Crist also is expected to make rounds throughout the state this week.
