Campaigning with Jesse Kelly in Arizona’s Eighth Congressional District

I’m traveling across the country helping Republican candidates take back the House of Representatives from Democrats and help put our country back on the path to prosperity. Here on RedState I will take you along to see what I’m seeing as we work to re-take our government.


A few days ago, I traveled to Arizona’s Eighth Congressional District to campaign with Jesse Kelly. Jesse is working hard with the Republican grassroots to defeat Democrat Gabrielle Giffords. Jesse’s energetic supporters were eager to hear his conservative message of fiscal responsibility and border security, and I know they’ll work hard to get him elected.

Jesse knows we need to cut reckless government spending programs and lower taxes so businesses can create jobs. He also understands that we have to respect the rule of the law and control our borders.

How important is this race? A local Arizona television station said:

Political experts said the winner of this race could determine who controls the political majority in Washington.

We need Jesse Kelly in Congress to help bring an end to Washington’s reckless ways.

Please visit Jesse Kelly’s website and keep up the great work,

Congressman Kevin McCarthy

    Virtually every news article about every house race claims “this race could determine control of the country”. The reality is, no one house race can do that because over 80 seats are in play, and there’s no way to know which one seat will determine the balance of power. Sorry, just a pet peeve of mine.

    That said, Giffords needs to lose so she can’t take on Jon Kyl. She’s also like practically the lord and savior of the Democratic party of Arizona and nothing would make me happier than to see her curly locks fall from grace. I think AZ is going to lose three democratic senators this election cycle.
