The man rumored to have started the Qanon movement, Ron Watkins, is one of seven Republican candidates running in the Arizona's 2nd Congressional District.

Crane hopes to take on O'Halleran in the fall.

Crane has been described as acarpetbagger, meaning a political candidate who seeks to be elected in an area where they have no local connections.

Crane does not live in the 2nd Congressional District and was encouraged to be booed by rally-goers.

Crane is out of touch with voters because he has never lived in a part of Arizona as rural as the district he is running in.

Crane has received over 2 million dollars in donations. Walter Blackman and Mark DeLuzio have received a lot of money. On August 2, the primary is held.

There was a rally in support of the candidate.
