Office Of Governor Scott: Rick Scott “Encouraged Families And Business Owners Across The Country To Use Tax Day As An Opportunity To Consider Moving To Florida.” “Today, Governor Rick Scott encouraged families and business owners across the country to use Tax Day as an opportunity to consider moving to Florida.

DOUG DUCEY

Voting

Capitol Media Services: A Republican Arizona Legislator Amended An Election Bill To “Require The State’s Largest County To Have At Least One Polling Place For Every 1,700 People Eligible To Turn Out At The Polls.” “If Arizona has a presidential primary four years from now, state lawmakers want to keep it from being the fiasco it was last month. A provision tucked into an unrelated election bill Monday would require the state’s largest county to have at least one polling place for every 1,700 people eligible to turn out at the polls. Sen. Kimberly Yee, R-Phoenix, said that should translate to about 200 polling places. There were just 60 in last month’s presidential primary.” [Capitol Media Services, 4/18/16<http://tucson.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/elections/plan-wold-set-minimum-number-of-maricopa-polling-places/article_f0339110-f44e-5442-88f8-c414119b0475.html>]

Some Observers Believed That Doug Ducey Would Veto Arizona House-Backed Legislation To Scrap Arizona’s Presidential Primary In Favor Of A Caucus. “One thing remains unclear: Whether there will, in fact, be such a vote in 2020. The House already has approved legislation to scrap the presidential preference primary first used in 1996. Proponents of that change, including Secretary of State Michele Reagan, said it’s not fair to have a statewide election paid for by taxpayers when more than a third of voters — those who are not registered with a major political party — are ineligible to cast ballots. An identical measure has gained preliminary Senate approval. That would allow parties to return to the system they had in place before 1996, with each having a caucus. Parties also could contract with the state to run a primary — at party expense. But the proposal is stalled amid hints by Gov. Doug Ducey he might veto the measure.” [Capitol Media Services, 4/18/16<http://tucson.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/elections/plan-wold-set-minimum-number-of-maricopa-polling-places/article_f0339110-f44e-5442-88f8-c414119b0475.html>]

Prop 123

Arizona Republic’s Laurie Roberts Believed That In Return For Koch Brothers Support For Prop 123, Doug Ducey Inserted $5 Million In The State Budget That Would Benefit “ASU’s Koch-Funded Center For The Study Of Economic Liberty.” “Looks like ASU’s Koch-funded Center for the Study of Economy Liberty’s enthusiastic thumbs up for Gov. Doug Ducey’s Prop. 123 has paid off. As in a multi-million-dollar payoff. Mysteriously, someone over at the Capitol has inserted $5 million into next year’s proposed state budget for universities. The money is earmarked for ‘economic freedom schools.’…Last October, ASU’s new Koch-funded Center for the Study of Economy Liberty’s endorsed Ducey’s Prop. 123 plan to temporarily boost school funding by siphoning more money from the state land trust.

Scott Walker’s Attorney General Asked For A Stay On A Dane County Judge’s Decision To Strike Down Wisconsin’s Right-To-Work Law. “Attorney General Brad Schimel sought Monday to restore the state's right-to-work law on two fronts, asking to put on hold a ruling that found the measure unconstitutional while he appeals the ruling. Gov. Scott Walker and his fellow Republicans in the Legislature last year passed the law, which bars businesses and unions from signing labor deals that require workers to pay union fees. Unions sued over the law and Dane County Circuit Judge C. William Foust this month ruled it violates the state constitution's ban on taking property without compensation. The Republican attorney general on Monday asked Foust to stay his decision so it could remain in place for now. He also asked the Wausau-based District 3 Court of Appeals to overturn Foust's decision.” [Wisconsin Journal-Sentinel, 4/18/16<http://www.jsonline.com/news/statepolitics/ag-schimel-moves-to-restore-wisconsin-right-to-work-law-b99708954z1-376102341.html>]
