Sen. John McCain's (R) reelection campaign on Saturday blasted Arizona primary challenger Kelli Ward, calling her recent phone conversation with a white nationalist "deeply concerning" and "part of a pattern.""Unfortunately, this appears to be part of a pattern for Kelli Ward, who has cozied up to multiple individuals who have made racist comments such as Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, former Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling, not to mention her association with numerous conspiracy theorists. It is clear Arizona cannot afford Kelli Ward's bad judgment," the campaign said in a statement Saturday. The station 3TV recently reported that Ward had been making calls to potential donors and reached out to a self-described white nationalist.
The latest Arizona polls show McCain leading Ward by a 21-point margin, with 17 percent of responders remaining undecided.
