'Cuz the field to unseat him is a crowded one.
There's a new entrant on the Democratic side of race -
Ireland-born Wall Street guy Conor O'Callaghan. Long-time Democratic activist Jeanne Lunn will serve as his committee's treasurer.
As of right now, Democrats O'Callaghan, Kurt Kroemer, Marlene Galan-Woods, Andrei Cherny, Amish Shah, and Andrew Horne are running for Schweikert's seat and I expect that they won't be the only entrants in the Democratic primary.
A list of statements of interest filed with the Arizona Secretary of State is here.
Plus, I expect that Schweikert will be challenged in the primary, from his party's right wing.
While, like most R electeds, he has ethics "issues," he doesn't seem to be quite as bigoted as fellow R Paul Gosar.
Caveat1 - This is my district now, but I have *not* decided who to vote for, and I won't make that decision until I have a ballot in hand.
Caveat2 - Forming a committee or filing a statement is no guarantee that someone will be on a ballot, nor is such required before being on a ballot.
