Kari Lake Officially Launches Bid For US Senate

Former Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake officially launched her campaign Tuesday night for U.S. Senate in Arizona.

“We are living in some dangerous times. The world is on fire. And every day Joe Biden wakes up and pours gasoline on it,” Lake said in her announcement speech.

“The only way to fix our problems is with America First policies. President Trump showed us how to do it. Remember four years ago we had $2 a gallon gas. The border was secure, inflation was non-existent, the economy worked for every American. We were thriving and then Joe Biden stumbles into the White House and he sent us on the kamikaze mission to total destruction,” Lake said.

“The propagandists back there in the media have done absolutely nothing except cheer him on and cheer on the Democrats,” she added.

Ms. Lake already got snookered on a two-way race for governor.

Me too.   Maybe a career in TV would suit her better.

It will be curious to see if she does another "John McCain" and trys to destroy her opponents instead of doing like she did in the general and just look "smart" (which really did...in my estimation). 

If she gets all stupid on her opposition, I won't be supporting her.

Lake is very capable. 

I hope she retools her campaign and goes after the key issues.

I would say that should include election integrity, but it would be good if she left that to others (why is she the only one who can fight that battle.....seems like we all have a stake in that outcome).

We can't have Ruben Gallego in the Senate.  That guy is a whack job and does not represent Arizona values in the lease.  What he represents is a failure by the GOP to drive home the key messages people need to hear.  In that vacuum, Gallego has found a home.

Sounds like Lake is taking a somewhat softer tone.

If she's sincere, she's got a great chance. 

I like Sinema, but will trade her for Lake any day.

Gallego CAN NOT win. 

We should be trashing this guy right now.  He's a hard core leftist and a whack job too.

Hmmm... reconsidering from my post above...

Gallego and Sinema may split enough of the vote on the left (independents, too) so that Ms. Lake could win with a plurality (not an outright majority).

Do they have "runoffs" in AZ if no candidate gets about 50% ??

Poll Reportedly Shows Sen. Sinema Losing Re-Election Despite ‘Pulling Votes from Lake’ in 3-Way Contest
November 3, 2023

A new survey reportedly conducted last month was revealed Monday, and suggests Senator Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) is polling in third place against Representative Ruben Gallego (D-AZ-03) and former gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake, despite apparently pulling a significant number of Republican voters.

The poll was commissioned by the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) and obtained by Puck News. The poll allegedly shows Gallego in first place with the support of 41 percent of Arizona voters and Lake in second place with 37 percent. Sinema finished in a distant third place, with the support of just 17 percent of Arizonans.

A spokesman for the NRSC reportedly told reporter Andrew Desiderio “the poll had a margin of error” of 4.4 percent, which means “Gallego and Lake would be in a statistical tie.” ...

I am new here but I only see comments about Lake, Sinema, and Gallego.  I'd like to know what others think about Sheriff Mark Lamb.  As of right now, I am leaning towards supporting him and will vote for him in the primary this coming March.

I have met Sheriff Lamb a couple of times...he's a good guy.  A "Constitutional Sheriff."

A little more on Gallego from the Free Beacon:
Quote
... The Arizona Democrat, who is running to unseat Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I., Ariz.), in 2022 told a Marine officer who opposed the vaccine to "shut the f**k up" and get the jab.

"It’s called being a Marine suck it up and deal with it," Gallego, a former Marine infantryman, said on Twitter.

But Gallego did more than just talk tough on social media. He introduced a bill in October 2021 to permit insurance companies to hike insurance premiums up to 50 percent for policyholders who "elected not to receive the COVID-19 vaccine." And early in the pandemic, Gallego pushed fines for businesses that opposed mask mandates. "That gets you to about 90% of the problem and will turn the infection rate around," Gallego said in June 2020.

Gallego’s support for those increasingly unpopular positions could hurt him in Arizona. Though support for mandates was initially high, by October 2022, 63 percent of Americans opposed them for the workplace, according to a Monmouth poll. And even some Democrats have expressed disenchantment with the party over policies to slow the pandemic.  ...

Gallego has not always abided by the strict mandates he publicly supports. In 2021, he was photographed without a mask—and without a shirt—during an all-expenses paid junket to Qatar, the oil-rich Gulf nation that funds Hamas and other terrorist groups. ...
