Arizon’s ex-Democrat Sen. Kyrsten Sinema will reportedly run for Senate in 2024 as an independent — setting the stage for a potential three-way race in the Grand Canyon state.
The report was based on pictures of a slideshow mapping a moderate 2024 run — apparently taken at a shared workspace in Phoenix, where the Senator and her team met to discuss the next steps.
According to pictures of two slides obtained by The Post, Sinema may not have yet discussed her plan with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer or the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, leaving both scrambling to back another candidate in a tight race. “A three-way race in Arizona is a nightmare scenario for Democrats. Schumer’s hold on a slim majority is getting weaker every day,” one national Republican strategist told The Post.
Sinema, 46, plans to have a baseline poll, opposition research and focus group feedback finished by Sept. 30.Sen. Kyrsten Sinema will run for re-election as an independent in 2024, according to a report.“As Arizona’s senior senator, she’s committed to ignoring partisan politics, shutting out the noise and delivering real results helping everyday Arizonans build better lives for themselves and their families,” the slide states.
The centrist senator’s decision could open the way for both Rep. Ruben Gallego and failed Arizona GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake to enter the race unopposed.Another slide presents Sinema’s campaign message as the “independent voice for Arizona.”The DSCC also didn’t immediately comment.
