Former Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake announced she will be running for Senate in what will likely be one of the most closely watched races in 2024.
Former Arizona gubernatorial candidate and conservative firebrand Kari Lake formally announced Tuesday she will seek the Republican nomination for Senate in what is expected to be one of the most closely watched races of 2024. 'I am not going to retreat. I'm going to stand on top of this hill with every single one of you.
Incumbent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, who left the Democrat Party to become an independent last year, has not yet said whether she will run for re-election. Lake spent the months leading up to her announcement boosting her national profile by hitting the pavement as a top surrogate for former President Donald Trump's presidential campaign and campaigning for Republican candidates across the country.
Arizonans — including a significant chunk of Republicans — already rejected Kari Lake once because of her dangerous plans to ban abortion and undermine our democracy. Her extremism should disqualify her from public office — and it will. Again,' Gallego campaign spokesperson Hanna Goss told Fox News Digital. Fox also reached out to a spokesperson for Sinema, but did not receive a response.
Democrats currently hold a narrow one-seat majority in the Senate, with three independent senators, including Sinema, caucusing with them. Arizona is one of Republicans' top targets to flip from the Democrats in their efforts to regain the majority in 2024, in addition to the Pennsylvania, Ohio, Montana, Nevada and West Virginia seats also up for grabs.
