AZ: Voter registration, property records cast GOP legislative candidate's eligibility in doubt

[RandySF]

An Arizona House seat thought to be safely in the hands of Republicans could be up for grabs after it appears one of the GOP candidates in a southeast Valley district might not be eligible to hold office.

Michael A. Way attested in his nomination paperwork that he will have resided in Maricopa County for six years and within Legislative District 15 for five years ahead of this fall's election.

The attestation is done under penalty of perjury. It's needed because the Arizona Constitution requires members of the Legislature to have lived in the state for three years and within the county they seek to be elected in for one year when they take office.

2. That's for sure.

The carpetbagger syndrome is massive, we have several holding office in Montana. One Us Senator, the governor, a wannabe Senator, both US House members and it goes on.

Like Sen. Warren said, there should be no such thing as a billionaire.

3. A billionaire has too much money to fuck with other people's lives.

At least, that's been my observation. There are a few real philanthropists, the rest target their money to create their desired political reality.

5. It would seem...

That that is the point of being so wealthy in the first place.
