Your state of Arizona was one of the last to recognize the Martin Luther King holiday as a paid holiday.
While Arizona has moved more to the center/left in the age of the Trump chaos, it remains the state of Barry Goldwater and William Rehnquist.
Of course, my state of California gave us Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan and today is the bluest of blue states (no Republican winning any statewide election for any statewide office in more than 12 years), so there is always hope.
And the 2018 senate race, while a squeaker, does provide hope, especially as a 2020 high-turnout presidential race looms in the age of Trump.
(Will Jeff Flake or Meghan McCain challenge Trump in a primary?
Or Mitt R-money? Nah, that coward who called Russia the greatest threat in his 2012 presidential bid and claimed to be independent of Trump couldn’t even find the balls or integrity to stand up to Trump and Putin and vote to extend sanctions on Oleg Deripaska. The guy is a fake. A phony. A fraud. Everything he rightfully accused Trump of being until he begged and groveled for a Secretary of State appointment that Trump gave to a Putin hand-picked choice in Rex Tillerson, who opposed Russian sanctions and had been awarded the Russian Order of Friendship, highest Russian award for a foreigner, personally pinned by Vladimir Putin.
