The Senate and governor’s races in Arizona have continued to tighten into a virtual dead heat, leaving the future of the Copper State uncertain with less than one week to go to Election Day.
The Senate race between Sen. Mark Kelly and Republican candidate Blake Masters, one of a handful of contests set to determine which party will gain control of the upper chamber, has narrowed to just a 2-point lead for the Democratic incumbent, according to a poll from Fox News released on Tuesday.About 47% of voters say they’d back Kelly compared to 45% who plan to vote for Masters, with another 9% still undecided.
Kelly’s 2-point advantage is down from the 6-point lead he held just last month, when 46% of voters said they planned to vote for him compared to 40% for his Republican counterpart. Further down the ballot, Arizona’s gubernatorial race is even tighter — with only 1 point separating Trump-backed GOP nominee Kari Lake and Democrat Katie Hobbs, who is the current secretary of state in Arizona.About 47% of voters say they plan to back Lake compared to 46% who said the same for Hobbs, putting the race well within the poll’s margin of error. Another 7% remain undecided.
The Fox News poll surveyed 1,003 Arizona voters between Oct. 26-30 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
