Voters in Arizona’s Maricopa County have reelected Sheriff Joe Arpaio, the face of Arizona’s controversial immigration enforcement law.
With 82% of the county’s precincts reporting, the self-proclaimed “toughest sheriff” in America won a sixth term convincingly with 53% of the vote.
Arpaio, 80, is best known for vigorously cracking down on illegal immigrants in his county — moves that won him admirers in and outside Arizona but also created a fissure dividing Latinos and law enforcement.
He was one of the state’s most vocal supporters of SB 1070, which requires law enforcement officers to check the papers of anyone they suspect is an illegal immigrant. The Supreme Court struck down other provisions of the law, but ruled that the so-called “show your papers” provision was constitutional. Immigrants however, are not required to carry their immigration papers on them at all times.
“I would like to get together with the Latino community, but they scream at you and I just can’t sit down” with them, Arpaio told a local NBC affiliate in Arizona on Tuesday night. “We’ll let them get their senses, we’ll talk and I’ll let them know what I do… I have to get back to the Latino community without them screaming and yelling and we can talk about it.”
Arpaio’s career is apparently coated in Teflon, with his candidacy surviving a federal investigation into corruption, a lawsuit into civil rights violations, and findings by Maricopa County investigators that his department misused $99 million in jail funds.
Democrat Paul Penzone received about 42% of the vote and Independent Mike Stauffer had about 4%.
Meanwhile, in Pinal County to the south, openly gay Paul Babeu has won a second term as sheriff.
With 72 of 102 precincts reporting, Bebeu had 53% of the vote.
Bebeu, a Republican, held off three primary challengers during the primary and Democrat and Independent candidates Tuesday night.

I am affiliated with the Libertarian Party, and I voted in the June Primary for Gary Johnson for President. I understand he received more than half of the votes in my state. Is he going to be on the ballot in November, or am I stuck with Democrat and Republican again? I really don’t want to vote for Obama or Romney.

My question was:
Will Obama start providing his Secret Service Agents with prostitution services as part of their healthcare?
Stress relief is a crucial part of a mans overall health. Will Obamacare pay for the stress relief services a prostitute provides? Can he force a woman to participate in this under represented market because it is covered by the commerce clause and the more women that participate, the lower the costs will be to provide men with this essential healthcare issue.
