Rep. Raúl Grijalva’s Arizona Boycott may give election to formidable Latina Democratic Candidate Amanda Aguirre

Last night the National Tequila Party Movement (Latina counter movement to the Tea Party) hosted a Tequila Rally in support of Amanda Aguirre for US Congress. We are getting quite a bit of feedback from Independent, Women and Veteran voters who are not happy with Grijalva. More importantly, we would like to see the first Arizona Latina US Congresswoman win in 2012! We need to see more women step up to the plate since more of us vote than men. It only makes sense.

The Tequila Party is a woman-led and independent-leaning movement helping Independent and Democratic candidates this 2012 year. We believe the Tea party has thoroughly hijacked the Republican Party and they need to politically burn to the ground before they build anew.

Now, make no mistake, if Amanda does not take the Arizona US Congress Seat, then we will support the 2nd best via Grijalva, but as a woman-led movement, we want to support Amanda due to her advocacy on behalf of women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer, how she has helped domestic violence victims, orpans and the elderly.

She is one dynamic woman!
