"Richard Kimball" is an United States/American politician, and president of the nonprofit organization Project Vote Smart.

In 1986, after serving in the Arizona Legislature and the state's Arizona Corporation Commission/Corporation Commission, Kimball ran as a Democratic Party (United States)/Democrat against John McCain for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Barry Goldwater.

His campaign was subject to negative press from The Arizona Republic and Phoenix Gazette, both owned by McCain benefactor Darrow Tully. One Gazette columnist described him as displaying "terminal weirdness." McCain ultimately won the election by a margin of over twenty percent.

Afterwards, Kimball commented on the campaign to a reporter from the Arizona Daily Star: "I was enormously depressed — not because I lost. It was because I spent all my time collecting money." He spent the months after the election traveling through Mexico, and has not sought public office since.

Say you sold someone a round of drinks for $17.50, ... You'd ring in $7.50, put the $17.50 in (the register), and put a swizzle stick in the drawer as a reminder that the drawer is up by $10. At the end of the night, if you had eight swizzle sticks in there, you'd pocket $80 before closing out your register.
