Democrat to Republican

Listen closely to what this man has to say and, as you do, consider his background with regards to his change.  He comes from a classic “assumed to support the Democrats” milieu.

From a Democrat to a Republican senator .  Why?  Because he finally realizes the Democrats are the party of Keeping Our Voters Down — so that those voters continue to vote for the Democrats in perpetuity.

Begay Leaves Democratic Party Citing Better Opportunities for District’s Education, Infrastructure, Employment Issues as Member of GOP

PHOENIX – This morning Chairman Robert Graham of the Arizona Republican Party enthusiastically welcomed Senator Carlyle Begay, who was elected as a Democrat to represent Arizona’s Legislative District 7 but today switched his party registration to Republican. He also joined the GOP caucus in the Arizona Senate, at an event held today at the Arizona State Capitol in Phoenix. District 7 is the nation’s largest state legislative district by area and includes most of Northeastern Arizona including eight different tribal lands.

“My relationship with Senator Begay has grown over the years and I am so proud to see him join with our party so he can better serve the people of his district,” said Arizona Republican Party Chairman Robert Graham. “Republicans have proven to have a much more successful approach on the issues important to not just his district but all of Arizona, like education and economic prosperity, and I’m looking forward to working with him to improve opportunities for his community.”

Begay was appointed to the Arizona Senate in 2013 and was reelected in 2014. He released a brief video documenting his upbringing as a Navajo (or Diné) and his lifelong political journey and strong desire to better serve the constituents of his district.

Just as Louisiana Senator Elbert Guillory changed back to a Republican (recently retired on January 11th) for the reasons set forth here.

A pivotal vote occurs nine months from now.  It involves no less than the success or failure of the United States of America.

P.S.

The name Begay is roughly the Navaho equivalent to the last name of “Smith.”
