A letter writer asked, “Even if a Tucson Republican in a predominantly GOP ward should win that ward’s popular vote for a city council seat, can Democrats citywide overthrow that election?” This question and similar comments amplify the notion that Democrats have rigged the system so Republicans can’t win citywide races in Tucson.

It is imperative that articles such as Brown’s and Ferguson’s on the misogyny of Augusta National be written, so that someday hate and prejudice will become “unacceptable.”On this strange day a former adult film star is found to be more credible than the former president. She has been threatened, vilified and in fear for her life, yet she remains a person to be reckoned with.
