It would be nice if the party were putting a page together with all the contenders and their bios and stances, etc. The establishment probably just wants to anoint a primary winner instead of making it a real contest, however.

The cameras wouldn't be so bad if the speed limits were anything LIKE what speed the average person drives. I vote that ALL speed limits in Arizona be set at the 85th percentile, and then let the cameras roll. Until then, it's just a mechanism to collect money from hard-working folks.
