Congressional District One Libertarian candidate David Schlosser correctly predicted in September that attacks between the two frontrunners in the race, incumbent Republican Rick Renzi and Democrat Ellen Simon, would get rougher as the general election nears.

Renzi said he warned Simon during an Arizona Republic editorial board gathering of CD1 candidates that if she went after his father, he would take off the gloves.

The Center for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington has placed Renzi on its list of “Most Corrupt Members of Congress” two years in a row. Both times, it accused him of sponsoring 2003 legislation as a way to help his father.
