"This is going to be a battle this year. The Democrats are motivated," Lesko said.

Debbie Lesko put on a masterclass in expectations setting early Saturday.
Lesko, a Republican, is locked in an increasingly tight race with Democrat Hiral Tipirneni to replace former Rep. Trent Franks (R-AZ), who resigned from the House last year after news that he asked a staffer to be his surrogate became public.
On paper, Lesko has little reason to be nervous. Less than a year and a half ago, Trump won this Arizona district by 21 points, and in most polls in the weeks leading up to election day next Tuesday shes led by double digits. But earlier this week, an Emerson college poll showed Tipirneni leading by one point, and Lesko appears to be feeling the heat.
We have got to win because we cannot let this radical left with their radical agenda take over this country, Lesko said Saturday morning at an Arizona GOP field office in Sun City, Arizona, where a group of about 70 people had gathered to hear her speak. Theres radical left groups that have flown in from New York. Shes getting money from the unions. Money from all over the country, and she is lying.

Hey Lesko....................where do you get your money from the fucking right wing like the Mercers, .........no, I remember you took money from a Trent Franks right ...................and you took his money because of his and your "values.............kinda like a hypocrite right, and as for a wall, your party thinks in Russian terms, they put up a wall called the Berlin Wall..................and they eventually lost..............
November 2018 cannot get here fast enough
