  • The confrontation underscores the feisty ground campaign being mounted on both sides - but also the increasing difficulty that Arpaio critics face in getting enough signatures to put a recall before voters.
    Volunteers set up a table outside a music festival one day last month to gather signatures for a drive to oust the notoriously polarizing sheriff of metropolitan Phoenix. The venue, with its largely liberal crowd, seemed the perfect place to drum up support.
PHOENIX -

Two days after injuring himself in a fall, Sheriff Joe Arpaio was released from a Phoenix hospital.

He took to his twitter Saturday night to say, "I was released from the hospital late today. Thank you for all of your kind wishes."

The toughest Sheriff in America took a tumble Thursday in downtown Phoenix.

Doctors found that he had a broken shoulder.

While the Sheriff was still hospitalized, Ava Arpaio said he was ready to get back to work. "He gets impatient if he has to stay in bed."
