Republicans worry Kari Lake and Blake Masters will lose Arizona Senate race again in 2024
The newly Independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema will be up for re-election in 2024, and her Arizona seat is drawing the attention of Democrats and Republicans alike. Some GOP leaders and operatives fear that Kari Lake and Blake Masters, losers in their 2022 contests for governor and Senate, respectively, may bungle the party’s chance with this prime pick-up once again if they run for Sinema’s seat.
Masters, a wealthy businessman turned GOP Senate candidate, challenged incumbent Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., in one of the most watched races of the 2022 midterm elections. Masters closely aligned himself to former President Trump throughout the race but ultimately came up short in the general, losing to Kelly by 5 percentage points.
Republicans were hoping for a viable GOP candidate to win the contest by a plurality with Sinema and Democratic candidate Rep. Ruben Gallego splitting the ticket, but talk of Masters and Lake considering their own runs is sparking concern.

“Any candidate in ’24 that has, as their principal campaign theme, a stolen election, is probably going to have the same issues that some of the ’22 candidates had,” Sen. John Thune, the Senate GOP’s No. 2 leader, told Politico. “I just don’t think that’s where the American public is. It’s a swing state — we need to have a good Republican nominee, obviously. You know, whoever gets in, I hope they focus on the future, not the past.”
Lake is also rumored to be considering a potential run for Sinema’s seat, but a final determination likely will not come until Lake’s election lawsuit is exhausted, according to multiple reports. The MAGA firebrand lost her gubernatorial campaign by less than one point to then-Secretary of State Katie Hobbs.
Already in the 2024 race for Arizona’s Senate seat is Gallego, a longtime critic of Sinema’s, who announced his campaign earlier this month.

Former Gov. Doug Ducey, the two-term Arizona governor, has been floated as a popular, traditional Republican choice for the seat, though Ducey turned down the opportunity to run for Sen. Mark Kelly’s seat.
“He’s made it pretty clear he’s not interested, but he’d be a great option,” Thune told Politico.

The 2024 Senate map strongly favors Republicans, with multiple Democrats defending seats in GOP stronghold states — West Virginia, Montana and Ohio — to hold on to their 51-49 majority.
Lake attacks Gallego as ‘AOC of Arizona’ after Senate announcement
Former Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake (R) attacked Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) as the “AOC of Arizona” on Sunday night, a week after the progressive Democrat announced he’s running for Senate in 2024.
Since losing to now-Gov. Katie Hobbs (D) in November’s election, Lake has pushed false claims about election fraud and taken her grievances to court. She is also rumored to be mulling a Senate run of her own.
Speaking to supporters at a rally Sunday night, Lake repeated unfounded claims that fraud allowed Democrats to win despite what she described as “bad candidates.”
“Have you seen the latest one they’re rolling out? The guy’s name is Ruben Gallego. He is the — we call him the AOC of Arizona. And that may actually be an insult to AOC,” Lake said in a jab at prominent progressive Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.).
Lake said Gallego “could not string three or four or five words together and make a coherent sentence,” comparing him to Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman (D) in an apparent insult of the senator’s auditory processing issues as a result of a stroke.
Gallego parried back on Twitter with a dig at the failed gubernatorial candidate.
“We call Kari Lake the Kari Lake of Arizona and yes that is an insult,” Gallego wrote.
An outspoken critic of Sen. Kyrsten Sinema’s (I-Ariz.), Gallego announced last week that he’ll run for her upper chamber seat.
Sinema, who stymied a number of Democratic initiatives in the last Congress’s 50-50 Senate, ditched her party just after the midterms and became an independent.
Sinema’s move puts Democrats in a tough spot if she runs in 2024, forcing them to decide whether to support the more moderate incumbent or a more progressive challenger, which may have a tougher time against a Republican in the purple state.
“I’m better for this job than Kyrsten Sinema because I haven’t forgotten where I came from,” Gallego said in a recent interview with The Associated Press.
“I think she clearly has forgotten where she came from. Instead of meeting with the people that need help, she meets with the people that are already powerful.”
