Ruben Gallego makes Krysten Sinema's support for the filibuster an issue in Arizona's 2024 contest for United States Senate

Democrat Mark Kelly wins in Arizona

The Democrats are one agonizing step closer to clawing back control of the Senate. Mark Kelly – an engineer, former astronaut, and husband of former-Representative Gabbie Giffords – has defeated Martha McSally in the state of Arizona. McSally was one of the weakest Republican incumbents – indeed, she lost the election for Arizona’s other Senate seat two years ago – while Kelly was one of the Democratic Party’s best challengers.

Kelly’s wide margin of victory likely spells good news for Joe Biden in Arizona, where a win would help put paid to the faux victory narrative that Donald Trump is currently spewing from his White House podium.

A win in Arizona would also show that Biden’s disappointing performance with Hispanic voters in Florida and Texas does not extend across the board. Strategists from both parties will doubtless have many lessons to learn from how the Hispanic vote broke down tonight.

The principles that underlie our politics, the values of our founding, are too vital to our identity and to our survival to allow them to be compromised by the requirements of politics because politics can make us silent when we should speak and silence can equal complicity. I have children and grandchildren to answer to.

— Retiring Republican Senator Jeff Flake of Arizona, delivering a noteworthy speech on the floor of the United States Senate today.

New Hampshire is getting the most cash, with $15.8 million going to boost Sen. Kelly Ayotte.
