Wil Cardon & Matt Salmon Campaign for Congress
13 images Created 4 Aug 2012
Wil Cardon is an upstart Republican challenging Jeff Flake, the long serving Republican from the east valley suburbs of Phoenix, for the US Senate seat being vacated by Sen Jon Kyl (R-AZ). It's an interesting race to follow because both men are very conservative and each keeps tacking further to right to appear even more conservative than his opponent.
Matt Salmon has been active in Arizona Republican politics for almost 30 years. He served in Congress from 1994 until 2000. He stepped down in 2000 to fulfill a campaign pledge he made to serve only three terms. He then ran for Governor of Arizona and lost an agonizingly close election to Democrat Janet Napolitano (who has gone on to serve as the President's Secretary of Homeland Security). Salmon is running now against Kirk Adams, a former speaker of the Arizona House of Representatives.
Cardon and Salmon made a joint campaign appearance at a home in Gilbert Friday night.
