It’s been a really bad week for left wing extremist, posing as a moderate running for Senate in Arizona, Kyrsten Sinema. This past week saw videos of Kyrsten Sinema calling Arizona the “crazy” state, and the “meth lab of democracy.” Sinema also said she didn’t care if a constituent went and fought for the Taliban, and that it was inappropriate to criticize left wing extremists who destroy property.
Now, it turns out that Kyrsten Sinema also, falsely, claimed to be a Latina. Basically, Sinema is Arizona’s version of Elizabeth Warren.

In July 2012, I reported on claims that Sinema wrongfully claimed to be Latino, “Someone tried to pull a Warren in AZ”. I quoted a Daily Caller article by Alex Pappas about the controversy:
A Democratic congressional candidate in Arizona is facing questions about why she is mysteriously and falsely being listed as a Hispanic in a prominent Latino group’s directory of officeholders.
This could be problematic for the candidate, Kyrsten Sinema, because the National Association of Latino Elected (NALEO) and Appointed Officials claims it verifies the information with the officeholders before going to print.
The revelation that NALEO’s 2011 “National Directory of Latino Elected Officials” lists Sinema, a former Democratic state senator, as a Hispanic first surfaced Monday on the website of the Phoenix New Times.
Sinema spokesman Rodd McCleod denied that the candidate self-identified as a Latina. “It’s not our mistake,” McCleod told the Phoenix New Times. “It’s NALEO’s mistake.”
But a NALEO official told the outlet that the information came from Sinema or her office. “We rely heavily on self-identification,” NALEO’s Rosalind Gold said.
