P.S. Mr. Moran,

It will cost far more than $20,000 to generate a recall petition and election against a state senator. Nevertheless, if you could succeed in recalling Senator Pearce, then you would also have to recall Senators Smith, Biggs and Allen who stand right behind Pearce. Between the state Senate and House you have a super majority of Republicans and supporters of SB 1070 and six more soon-to-come related bills. Wise up Mr. Moran…you really don’t have any idea what you’re trying to do much less what it will cost.

Dear Mr. Moran,

How long have you been a resident of the State of Arizona? Do you understand that in Maricopa County, Pearce was elected with a pretty good sized majority and remains very popular. Do you understand that in Sedona anti-SB1070 proponents are a small vocal group? In fact, anti-SB1070 proponents, who represent a small minority in the Verde Valley, represent only 23% of the state’s voters…and that number is shrinking. Apparently Mr. Moran, you don’t even understand what state you live in. I’m with VOC Dem. It’s always progressives like you who want other people to waste their money promoting your causes. If you are so passionate about your cause why don’t you have the courage to spend your own money on a truly poor investment? Or, is it possible you can’t come up with that small sum of money because you live off government handouts?

Well said VOC. Posturing is intellectually dishonest. Wise up Moran.

I say publicly and call on others to do so; You Sir, Mr. Moran, do NOT speak for the majority of Arizona Democrats. You’re out of touch with AZDEMS opinions regarding the illegal immigration issue. AZ cannot continue to avoid addressing this economic and social drain on our society. While I’m not a fan of Mr. Pearce, and would never vote for him, he was elected and that election will be overturned or affirmed by the next vote scheduled. Recalls are a waste of time=effort=resources except in the most unusual of circumstances. This is not one of them. We shouldn’t be pressured or asked based on Party affiliation (??) when in fact, NO one should fund YOUR personal agenda, or the personal agendas of an unknown few. Fund it yourself, Mr. Moran. Put your own money on the line for your actions. Thank you Sedona Times for the opportunity to express all points of view even when I am in agreement or disagreement. Civil discourse is American. Keep it up.
