In reply to the discussion: Arizona Democrat Ruben Gallego announces Senate bid in challenge to Kyrsten Sinema [View all]Zambero
(10,032 posts)12. A Gallego-Sinema-Lake match-up in 2024?
Or, perhaps Sinema doesn't run as Indie in the 2024 GE and it's down to Gallego-Lake?
I like Gallego's chances in the latter. He gets the support of the left and the lion's share of moderate/independent voters.
In the former 3-way race scenario, with the right solidifying for Lake, would independent voters tend to split the vote between Gallego and Sinema, providing Lake with an advantage? I see that being a closer split than a 2-way race.

I'm sure Sinema doesn't care. As many have noted here and in the media, she's slated herself...

Yes, good points, but what good will Sinema be to the Repubes if she isn't a "Democratic"

He can win the Dem primary, but he wouldn't face her until the general election

No, she changed Parties and said nothing about how she would run for re-election.

St Bernie of Burlington can do that in a very small state with few voters.

If she runs in the primary and loses, she can't run as an independent in the general

Why would she? It would be throwing away her last chance to benefit from her position.

I would not be too surprised if Sinema grabs a fair number of Republican votes
