After suffering defeat by a razor-thin margin in 2010, Jesse Kelly will seek redemption in the upcoming special election for the House seat being vacated by Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ).

Giffords defeated Kelly by a mere two percentage points in the 2010 midterm elections. During that campaign, Kelly floated the rumor that Democrats were busing Mexicans across the border to vote illegally in Arizona.
