mr. barber defeated his republican challenger, jesse kelly last night by a margin of six points. ron barber will now serve out the final six months of gabby giffords's. but these two will likely face off against once each other again this coming november. so barber won. assuming republicans in arizona want to give mr. kelly another chance, that remains to be seen. either way, i'm sure we'll get to break out the awesome election music again. up in north dakota, voters took to the polls yesterday to decide on a number of headline-grabbing ballot measures. among them, a ballot measure to abolish the state's property tax. the state is awash in cash thanks to the oil boom there. and voters were asked yesterday, do you want to get rid of your property tax. and by an overwhelming margin, north dakotan voters said, no, we do not want to get rid of our property tax. the eliminate the property tax ballot measure failed yesterday, 77% to 23%. if it had been approved, north dakota would become the first state in the country without a property tax. but north dakotans voted yesterday to keep paying property tax. also on the ballot yesterday, north dakota was a ve

mr. speaker, i stand here on the floor of the house in the very spot where five months ago my friend and my predecessor, congresswoman gabrielle giffords, bravely delivered her resignation from congress. i want to thank the congresswoman for her vision and leadership and the inspiration she continues to give to our country. gabby, southern arizona misses you dealer and we cannot wait to have you home. -- dearly and we cannot wait to have you home. today as i begin my service in this, the people's house, i'm mindful that the stakes for our nation are very high. they are too high not to set aside political division in favor of seeking common ground. too high to use our words as weapons. too high to think of those with whom we disagree as villains. as an arizonan, i look to the example of congressman mo udall ass and senator barry goldwater -- udall and senator barry goldwater two, leaders in their respective party who disagreed much but did so without being disagreeable. and they came together many times to do what was right for their state and their country. i am going to approach my work for the people of southern arizona with an eye n

mr. kelly when he was on the show earlier this week, i want to play for you this ad that's being done by an outside group on your behalf, using congresswoman giffordsfferent way. here's the ad. >> and to years ago, kelly said this about gabby giffords. >> and now she stands there with that smile and pretends to be some kind of hometown hero. she's a hero of nothing. >> do you really want jesse kelly representing you? >> is that appropriate, considering that his words, when he said this, it makes it -- it implies that it's about gabby giffords after the shooting, when, of course, he said this during the 2010 campaign. is that fair? >> well, i do think, first of all, the video or the commercial has nothing to do with my campaign, as you know. it's done by an outside group and we have no influence one way or the other in an ad that they do of that nature. and it the does show clearly it was 2010. i think the issues are clearly what i'm trying to focus on is what is happening here, now, in 2012, the southern arizona. and i really want to make sure that anything we put out has to do with the issues that are of importance to some arizonianari. >> so it's
