Republicans are running out of alternative options to challenge KariLake in the Arizona Senate primary, as the party seemingly tries to step away from extreme candidates after a less-than-expected GOP performance in the 2022 midterm elections.
Lake, who lost her gubernatorial race to now Gov. Katie Hobbs in the midterm elections, is mulling a return to national politics by entering the Senate race. As speculation surrounds her impending bid, she has ramped up her attacks against Rep. Ruben Gallego but has mostly kept her mudslinging toward Sen. Kyrsten Sinema to a minimum.
Former Senate Republican candidate Blake Masters, who lost to Sen. Mark Kelly , is reportedly considering another run. Masters and Lake are two of Trump's endorsed candidates, offering similar far-right stances on social and political issues. A primary battle between the two of them would likely set up a fiery showdown and make former President Donald Trump choose between his favored candidates.
Similar to Trump's frequent cries, Lake has long maintained that election fraud deprived her of victory in the recent election. She has challenged the 2022 election results all the way to the Maricopa County Superior Court. The court dealt Lake her final blow with a ruling against her in May. The court determined that Lake did not present enough evidence to prove election interference or tampering.
"I think most people are facing reality that if she runs for that seat, she has a significant number of Republican primary voters who are going to vote for her, and why put good money after bad, I think is what a lot of people are thinking,” Republican strategist Chuck Warren told the Hill.“So unless somebody comes in and throws $15 [million], $20 million of their own money, I think it’s very difficult, and that person’s not popping up,” Warren added.
