Horne should step aside from GOP-Fiesta Bowl investigation

Andrei Cherny, Arizona Democratic Party chairman, issued the following statement today:

"As a former prosecutor, I agree with Terry Goddard's call for Attorney General Tom Horne to step aside from the investigation into the scheme by Republican lobbyists to use the Fiesta Bowl as a front for funnelling illegal contributions to GOP politicians.

"This scandal reveals the deep and pervasive Republican culture of corruption in Arizona. Given the partisan nature of this scheme, Attorney General Horne's conflict of interest is too great to give Arizonans the confidence that justice will be served and the mess in the Republican Party will be cleaned up."
