The Show regularly checks in with the Editorial Board of the Arizona Republic to talk about current issues facing the state and the region — featured in columns on the newspaper’s op-ed pages.

Republicans still hold narrow majorities in the state Legislature, but disagreements with the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors over November’s election equipment and software auditing and information and legislation to modify Arizona’s Permanent Early Voting List have broadened the cracks within the party.

In a column over the weekend, Bob Robb of the Republic wrote that it’s time for the GOP to govern differently and not just focus on party loyalists.

The Show spoke with the Republic's Phil Boas for more about Robb's argument.
