Unrelated to the above, just FYI if you're into politics... Sarver is a big Flake GOP guy. Sarver used to host fundraisers for Flake etc. Long story short, the GOP establishment is scrambling to find a 'name' to run against Kelli Ward and the Trump $$$. Sarver is one of a very small group that is being considered.

Ideology or party affiliation aside, I can't think of a less popular person to run for Congress. Being the beneficiary of a renovated arena financed largely by the city would only make the problem worse.
