As an Independent registered voter of Arizona, I requested the Democratic ballot in order to cast my vote during the Democratic Primary Election come August 28th, 2012.

I have made it clear that I am supporting independent candidate Mike Stauffer in the general election come November 6th, 2012, however, I did cast my ballot for Democratic candidate John Rowan for Maricopa County Sheriff  when I voted in the official ballot for the Democratic party primary election.

I did vote for (D) John Rowan in the Democratic primary because I believe (D) Paul Penzone is a flawed candidate who comes with no command experience (was a mere sergeant),  furthermore and more importantly, I cannot support Paul Penzone due to his domestic violence police record.  Susan B. Penzone told the Glendale Police department that Penzone shoved her into the doorway when she went to retrieve hockey sticks for her son,

Women speak out against alleged wife beater Paul Penzone

and she was given a head injury that was reported in the Glendale Police Report.  Documented injuries were reported, yet nobody was taken to jail.  Me thinks Penzone thinks he is above the law as it appears he was given professional courtesy. Penzone will be lucky to receive 10% of the woman Democratic vote on that incident alone.

Why would it be ideal for Democratic voters to support John Rowan during their primary election?

The answer is simple:   (D) John Rowan and (I) Mike Stauffer would be able to have a two-fold flanking attack method against the corrupt Sheriff Joe Arpaio creating a good environment for Arpaio to be on the defensive.   Both (D) John Rowan and (I) Mike Stauffer are candidates for the Maricopa County Sheriff who have undergrad college degrees and experience — but Arpaio and Penzone do not.  The Rowan people would leave the Stauffer people alone and the Stauffer people would leave the Rowan people alone.  Both the Democratic and Independent supporting groups could focus on exposing the corrupt nature of Arpaio depleting him of his resources faster.

Now for the good part …  we cannot turn a blind eye to Penzone’s own corrupt behavior because Arpaio is yearning for the weakest Democratic candidate to win come August 28th, 2012 and here is why:

In a recent video ad, (D) Paul Penzone presents a dramatization of an abused child whom you do not see, but hear reading a script while an empty swing gently drifts back and forth. His intent was to point out the 400+ sex crimes not investigated in El Mirage under Arpaio’s administration.

Penzone closes the ad stating this [uninvestigated sex crimes] won’t ever happen on his watch, however, they already have. In 2007, two years before Penzone left the Phoenix PD as the talking head of Silent Witness, CBS 5 reported over 587 cases of uninvestigated sex crimes lay waiting at the Phoenix PD. Where was Paul Penzone?

Penzone continues to toute his extensive investigative work with Phoenix PD, yet the very man who was supposedly advocating for children’s safety did nothing to expose his agency for the same crimes Arpaio committed. Where was Paul Penzone? We can’t afford another Arpaio.

Here is how independent candidate Mike Stauffer will beat the corrupt Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
