AZ-01, AZ06:Arizona's competitive congressional races quiet so far as candidates enter final stretch
For the moment, Arizona’s races are largely unfolding as the candidates can afford to frame them.
In both cases, the Democratic candidates have a clear financial advantage, and O’Halleran is a two-term incumbent.
As of mid-July, Tipirneni had $1.3 million in cash available for her campaign. Schweikert had $230,000.
O'Halleran had $1.4 million in cash, while Shedd had $215,000.
Spending that will unfold over the next few weeks will make clearer whether party leaders in Washington or their political allies outside the party’s operations believe they can make a difference.
