Democratic lawmaker leads Kari Lake by three points in Arizona Senate race: Poll

The poll, which was published by AARP, found 48% of respondents favored Gallego versus 45% that preferred Lake. Six percent were still undecided. Although Gallego is leading in the survey, the margin of error is four points, which makes the responses a statistical tie. 

Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego is leading his opponent, Republican Kari Lake, by three points in the race to represent Arizona in the U.S. Senate as of Thursday, according to a new poll.

The poll, which was published by AARP, found 48% of respondents favored Gallego versus 45% that preferred Lake. Six percent were still undecided. Although Gallego is leading in the survey, the margin of error is four points, which makes the responses a statistical tie. 

Gallego's lead is helped by Lake, who was the Republican nominee for Arizona governor in 2022, having a higher unfavorability rating than her Democratic opponent. Only 35% of respondents have a very favorable view of Lake, whereas 49% have a very unfavorable view. While Gallego has a 34% very favorable rating, just 24% have a very unfavorable view, according to the survey. 

Lake is also perceived as a more controversial candidate among her own party than Gallego, because she tends to skew further right than mainstream Republicans. Roughly 86% of Republicans and 6% of Democrats back Lake, while 93% of Democrats and 10% of Republicans support Gallego. The congressman is also more favored among Independents, with 47% preferring Gallego and 39% preferring Lake.

“There is a 27-point gender gap among voters 50+, with women supporting Gallego by 12-points and men voting Lake by 15,” AARP noted in the poll.

The AARP poll was conducted between May 28 and June 4, and surveyed 1,358 likely voters, according to The Hill.

Kari would need to be winning by at least 30 points to beat the vote fraud in that state. Maybe even 40 points. It is that bad.

While Gallego has a 34% very favorable rating, just 24% have a very unfavorable view, according to the survey.

So a senatorial candidate in Arizona who favors open borders has an unfavorability rating of just 24 percent? Not buying it.

They must have forgotten about Sheriff Mark Lamb. He’s been the sheriff here in Pinal County and has a great online following. They’re presuming a lot by thinking Lake will be the GOP candidate in November.

I thought earlier polls had Lake way behind. If this is even close to the truth, maybe Arizona voters don’t like what’s going on in their state.

What percentage of the 1358 were Dems? Knowing AARP it was a large percentage.

Is Kari Lake going for the French army’s win-loss record?

I hear almost NOTHING from either candidate. I don’t see or hear ads. I rarely hear Kari Lake on the radio. I don’t understand how two people can run for the Senate and I never hear anything about either one.

And I’m sure if anything is on commercial/cable TV news, it will be extremely biased. I don’t have cable so maybe that is where the ads are running?

She’s only 49% very unfavorable, so she still has a chance.

If Trump carries AZ, I would expect that Lake will win.

Although not portrayed by the media as that Gallegos is an extreme leftist.

“[Lake] tends to skew further right than mainstream Republicans

Where is the corresponding statement “Gallego tends to skew further left than Mao, Lenin and Pol Pot”?

The problem - nobody really knows Gallego. He leftie extremist on the level of AOC, but he seems to play it low.
Kari is still hurting from 2022 governor primaries, when her well funded opponent smeared her in incredible ways.
It was sick, but some people bought it.

Sheriff Lamb has a much better chance of winning in the general election
He never chased people out of his events.
