The racist convicted criminal (and Trump pardoned) Joe Arpaio has announced that he will run for the Senate seat in Arizona being vacated by Republican Jeff Flake. Does he have a chance of winning the Republican Primary? A new poll shows that he might actually have a chance to win!
It is the ABC 15 / OHPI Poll -- done on January 9th of 504 likely Republican primary voters, and has a margin of error of 4.36 points.
It shows that Martha McSally (31%) and Joe Arpaio (29%) are virtually tied at the present time, when the poll's margin of error is considered (with McSally leading by a slim 2 points). However, if Donald Trump endorses Arpaio, he would rise to 35% with McSally staying at 31% (and Trump probably would endorse him, since Arpaio would be a 100% yes man for Trump in the Senate).
In other words, Arpaio has a very good chance of winning the Republican primary.
