Scottsdale City Councilman Barry Graham counts several strange bedfellows among the list of organizations endorsing him. They are the American Freedom Club and Crimson Saquaro. While it should not be surprising that these right-leaning organizations would support the conservative Graham, perhaps the Scottsdale City Councilman should consider the track record of these entities and see if what they support is good for his local residents.
