Clinton Makes Play For Arizona With Boost Of $2 Million

The Hillary Clinton campaign on Monday announced that it will boost its coordinated efforts in Arizona, an historically red state, with more than $2 million for ads, as well as mail and digital ads.

Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook said on a call with reporters that the state would still be an "uphill climb" for the campaign, but that Donald Trump's recent rhetoric has put the state in play.

"Donald Trump’s hateful rhetoric and deeply disrespectful remarks about Sen. John McCain have made Arizona more competitive. This is a state that would really foreclose a path for Donald Trump to win the White House," he said.

He said that in addition to the presidential race, the Clinton campaign's coordinated efforts will also focus on the Senate race and two House races in the First and Second Congressional districts.

poll watching/fighting voter intimidation/suing the shit out of Pence for siccing the cops on black voter registrants

stuff like that.

what diff does it make if it's 270 or 400?

if the votes don't count, we're screwed

it happened in 00 and 04. they STOLE both those elections, starting in Florida with the caging/purging BS, and pulled similar crap in Ohio

and lord knows what the Russians have in mind, cyber-wise
