The San Carlos Apache of Arizona held a rally last month for a number of candidates for local, state and federal political office.
Among those who attended the August 26 was Rep. Rick Renzi (R), a newcomer to Congress who has made Indian issues a priority. His district covers parts of the Navajo Nation and the San Carlos and White Mountain Apache reservations.
Other candidates included those running for county sheriff, county attorney and other local representatives. Democrats and Republicans were invited.
According to the county recorder, voter turnout in one tribal district was 70 percent in the last election.
