Mccain is not popular with republicans in az. The governor is up for re- election picky Cindy would be terrible for his selection bid. There was rumor John was trying to work out a deal for him to pick Cindy so he could announce his retirement. That did not happen.

Had McCain left office before May 30, his Senate seat would have been on the ballot in Arizona in November 2018. His junior colleague, Republican Sen. Jeff Flake, has already announced he’s retiring, meaning both of Arizona’s seats would have been up for grabs.

But since it’s after May 30, it will likely be Ducey who picks the replacement. There’s nothing in the state’s constitution that allows for a special election after that date, as Amber Phillips at the Washington Post explains:

Election officials told The Washington Post in the spring that there was the possibility of a legal battle to try to hold a special election in 2018 for McCain’s seat, even if candidates have to file after that May 30 deadline.

“If there was a vacancy today and we made a decision on ‘yes, call a special election’ or ‘no, [don’t] call a special election’ . . . there is a 99.9 percent chance that litigation would ensue,” said Eric Spencer, election services director in the office of Arizona Secretary of State Michele Reagan, a Republican.

But that was closer to May. Now a federal election is just months away, and no matter what happens to McCain’s seat in the coming days or weeks or months, it seems very probable it won’t be on the ballot again until 2020.

So, Ducey would pick a replacement who would serve at least until 2020, the next general election. And the winner of that election would serve the rest of McCain’s six-year term, which ends after the 2022 election, so in January 2023. The replacement has to be a Republican, like McCain.

Now that would be something.

Choking a 10 point lead like the Spurs do as a work of art.

They literally have a 10 point lead over there. I cant wait to see how they lose it this time.

Although with idiots like Kelly Ward coming out and saying MCcain only put out the notice he would be discontinuing cancer treatment was only to hurt her. That will play nicely for her I'm sure.

McSally is winning the primary so Ward is irrelevant

Kyl quotes

The Reagan years showed us that expanding economic freedom should be the North Star - the guiding light - of U.S. policy, because it is the best way to achieve sustained and broad-based prosperity for all. :lol

It would be hard to find a more compelling example of the American dream than Alberto Gonzales. :lol

The death tax is unfair, inefficient, economically unsound and, frankly, immoral :lol

I was first elected to public office when the Reagan revolution was in full swing. Maximizing freedom guided the policies of that era, with tremendous success. :lol

If you want an abortion, you go to Planned Parenthood, and that's well over 90 percent of what Planned Parenthood does. :lol

I don't think there's anything called 'middle class values' that are different from the values of other people in this country. :lol
