Just a month after national Republicans appeared to give up on Arizona Republican Blake Masters, the Trump-backed Senate candidate has staged a comeback — and Arizona is in play.
National and Arizona Democratic operatives are privately fretting that incumbent Sen. Mark Kelly is endangered, noting a shift by previously undecided voters toward the GOP, aided by a patchwork of new Republican spending to bolster Masters. Recent polling has shown Kelly’s lead shrinking to a few points, much tighter than surveys showed throughout August and September.
“There’s a very narrow path to victory for Democrats in Arizona,” said Roy Herrera, a Democratic election attorney and consultant in the state. “Any poll that shows the Democrats are doing any better than the low or mid-single digits is probably not accurate, or won’t be maintained through the election cycle.”
After Masters' poor performance in post-primary polling, many observers appeared to conclude that the 36-year-old venture capitalist was a longshot to unseat Kelly, a former astronaut with a formidable fundraising operation.
A Democrat close to the Kelly campaign said Arizona should never have been considered “safe” for the party this year — even as Masters struggled earlier in the general election.

Master should use this!
If you look douschebag up in the dictionary, you will see Mark Kelly’s picture.
Leaps back into contention? Really? Cue Ball was NEVER going to beat Masters - any lead Cue Ball had/has was/is a figment of rodent controlled media.
Don’t think so?
Name a single issue any Democrat/communist stands for that the majority of voters stands for?
Name a single issue the rodents are against that the is in line with a majority of voters.
CRICKETS!!
With Kari Lake and Abe Hamadeh pulling the wagon, Cue Ball never really had a chance.
Republican enthusiasm is running 10 points higher and more.
It won’t be close.
The media gaslighting campaign is ending and now we can see reality. Masters was always winning.
I would think many Masters voters would not tell pollsters the truth for fear of being identified as “fascists” in some databases that could find their way to folks who could punish “the haters”.
That is how I read it too.
