Pat Lenton, an Oro Valley resident and member of the St. Odilia Catholic Community parish, said President Joe Biden's policies on the border and immigration are heartbreaking.
"What I have seen and heard about the border, it breaks my heart," Lenton said. "I never know what to believe. There is so much out there. You can't just sit there and not do anything."
"I believe the most important thing we can do is vote," she said. "We need to take action and make our voices heard on these critical issues."
Former President Donald Trump (R) leads President Biden (D) by ten points among Arizona voters in the 2024 race for the White House, according to a recent poll of Arizona voters released by American Greatness.
Trump leads Biden 42 to 32 percent, with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. (I) at 13%. In a two-way race, Trump is ahead of Biden 48-42 percent, with 11% undecided.
In June, Trump launched a “Swamp the Vote” campaign by asking voters to vote early, absentee, by mail, or in person on Election Day.
“Republicans must win and we must use every available appropriate tool to beat the Democrats,” Trump said in a video announcing the “Swamp the Vote” effort. “Whether you vote early, absentee, by mail or in person, we must swamp the radical Democrats with massive turnout.”
When it comes to early voting, more than half of Arizona's Democrat registered voters are on the state's Active Early Voter List (AEVL), compared with just 46 percent of Republicans, reported the Grand Canyon Times.
Of the state's 2.104 million registered Democrats, 1.059 million of them-- or 50.1 percent-- are on the AEVL list. Arizona has 2.316 million registered Republicans, and 1.068 million of them-- 46.1 percent-- have signed up for the list.
Arizona county election authorities mail ballots to voters on the AEVL 27 days prior to every election.
