Stirrings From Mystery Candidate
Today, the Pima County Democratic Party was treated to a visit from Randy Graf associate and former militia leader Russ Dove. Dove has been demanding access to the Party’s voter file, which has been refused, and was refused again today. Dove left in a huff, telling long time Democratic fixture Martin Bacal that he would have a fight on his hands.
Dove is registered as a Republican (which means his civil rights must have been restored after that grand theft conviction), so it would be unusual for him to think he would be given access to the Democratic party’s file. Dove, however, claims to be working on behalf of a mystery candidate, who he refuses to name. If this person has concerns with having himself known, then maybe he should think about a different hobby than electoral politics. Dove has claimed that the candidate lives in California but will move here to run. He has also claimed that the candidate lives in Cochise County and has been in touch with people there. He at one point gave this guy the name “William Johnson.” ( At least he didn’t say “Howard”) Now he is saying that they are still looking for someone.
Dove, some of you may remember, was caught attempting to intimidate Hispanic voters at polling places during the 2004 elections. So, Dove, how exactly do you know which voters are illegal aliens and which aren’t? Are you some sort of high level Scientologist that can read those secret runes on their foreheads? ‘Cause, I know, if two people walk in to vote, a dark skinned native born man with a mustache and a Guadalajara Chivas shirt, and the other is a red-headed freckled Irish student who overstayed her student visa, you’ll immediately pick out the student as the illegal, right?
Dove is also a broadcast partner of perenial candidate and anti-semite Joe Sweeney. He also was part of the Border Guardians group that attempted to disrupt a city council meeting last week. Why the heck does this guy think the Democrats should give him their voter file?

I wonder how he would react if Martin Bacal asked him for a contact list of militia members?
