It now has 4 reliable blue pivots, The Flagstaff area (Northern Arizona U), the Tucson area (University of Arizona and lots of other activity), The West Phoenix/Tempe nexus (Arizona State University and lots of other activity), and the western mostly Hispanic edge of the state heading toward California. Those were the regions that defeated McSally last time.

I wonder whether McSally will stick her nose up Trump's buttcrack again, or will she more wisely try to distance herself?

More Hispanic voters and a lot of progressive transplants who were priced out of coastal California
