Cindy McCain Says Democrats Could Win Arizona In 2020

The wife of the late Republican Sen. John McCain says she can see Democrats winning Arizona in 2020.

Cindy McCain appeared on the podcast "Women Rule" by Politico this week.

"We have a huge Hispanic population now that have found their voice in politics. No. 1. And No. 2 we have on my side of the aisle, the Republican side, we see a local party in Arizona that’s not functioning well," said McCain.

McCain also said the Republican Party is excluding people and that it’s no longer the GOP it once used to be.

McCain also said that the country has seen the last of men like her husband. John McCain died last year from a brain tumor.
