Former Phoenix metro Sheriff Joe Arpaio is making his third political comeback attempt
FILE - Former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio poses for a photo on July 22, 2020, in Fountain Hills, Ariz. Arpaio, the 90-year-old former sheriff of Arizona's most populous county who was voted out amid frustration over his headline-grabbing tactics and legal troubles, is attempting another political comeback as he runs for mayor of the affluent suburb where he has lived for more than two decades.
“My secret weapon has always been: Get to the people,” Arpaio said. “You sure need that to get elected in a small town.” Arpaio was crushed by a Democratic challenger in 2016 after 24 years in office as sheriff and was convicted the next year of criminal contempt of court for disobeying a judge’s order to stop traffic patrols that targeted immigrants, though he was later pardoned by then-President Donald Trump.
