They have seen Kysten Sinema bail on them….
But?
Rep. Rueben Gallego looks good for them in a seat they REALLY need to try and keep Chuck Schumer as the Majority Leader…..
A new survey from an Arizona-based pollster found Independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema trailing her potential general election opponents.
A Noble Predictive Insights poll conducted via online panel October 25-31 among 1,010 registered voters found Democrat Rep. Ruben Gallego leading a hypothetical three-way Senate race with 39% support, followed by 2022 GOP gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake at 33% and the incumbent Sinema at 29%. The poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1%.
Sinema has yet to say whether or not she will seek a second term, but she is running behind the Democratic and Republican candidates. The data shows that Sinema is pulling more Republican votes from Lake than Democratic votes from Gallego. Her coalition in this survey includes 49% of Independents, 23% of Republicans, and 12% of Democrats.
“It’s interesting to see that Gallego is still ahead even as Republicans lead in the presidential and generic House races (R+8),” said Mike Noble, chief pollster at NPI. “Part of that may be the presence of Sinema scrambling things for voters. But part of it may be Gallego cultivating a strong personal brand.”
Lake remains the frontrunner in the Republican primary with 40% support, although 33% are undecided. Her chief rival for the nomination, Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb, earned 14% support. 2022 GOP Senate nominee Blake Masters earned 10% support, although he is now running for the open seat in Arizona’s 8th congressional district….
Note….
Kari Lake looks like she’s gonna go 0-2 in running for office in Arizona….
