Lake-doesn’t look good. They can only elect McLames and Flakes it seems. Sad to say. Could money win it for her? If so it’s on us as no serious GOP candidate should go lacking.

That would be dreadful. Gallego is a hard core open-borders Marxist.

So democrats had a close primary and no one challenged the result because, Trump or something.

It’s an idiotic article.

True - but look at every Senate race around the country. Massive amounts of Soros/out-of-state money are being funneled in to fight any candidate remotely resembling a conservative. It's more a consequence of the 17th Amendment - we've created 100 mini Presidential races that virtually shut out the opinions of each state's residents.

Well said!
Thanks to the 17th Amendment the state as an institution has lost its voice in national policy.

It's the Washington Post. "Idiotic" or "corrupt" are baked into the cake.

They’re worried he will eradicate the dem cheat machine across the country which would likely mean Dems would be severely damaged and wouldnt win nearly as many elections

“Lake-doesn’t look good. They can only elect McLames and Flakes it seems.”

What do you base that on? I’m hearing the opposite

Based on feet on the ground feedback, Kari Lake has pretty strong support in Arizona - including the more liberal/Hispanic areas like Tucson.

If the elections is fair, Kari Lake is favored to beat Gallego.

The strange ting is that there seems to be a number of voters who are all in for Trump but still are on the fence for Lake which I find puzzling.

yes that is puzzling because Lake is Trump in a dress

Looking at who they are voting for as a block, the wanna-be
Communists have no right to worry about anything. They gave
that up long ago.

I am in South Phoenix and work in Scottsdale. No shortage of Lake signs, and plenty of TV/Billboard advertising. Trump does okay among the Hispanics here, but Lake's opponent has a Hispanic surname and may not have coattails for Lake. She presents well, and Gallego is crazy left (he is presently my rep . . . ugh)

It’s something called history.

Some people can’t accurately see the difference between
black and white. (I don’t know Lake’s opponent, so if
it’s a Black person, this was not in reference to race.)

That’s the game and we gotta play it.

Republican voters are a quirky bunch (and I don’t mean that in a good way).

I have been sending money to the Lake campaign. We need her in the Senate.

It makes no sense at all. What is the point of it other than it was likely rigged, yet not contested. Why would Trump care about a Democrat primary?
