Poll: Sinema approval higher among Arizona Republicans than Democrats
By Reid Wilson - 01/26/22 02:41 PM EST
Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D) is seen more favorably by Republicans in her home state than by members of her own party as she emerges as a crucial obstacle to Senate Democrats’ push to overhaul voting rights by eliminating the filibuster.
New polling from OH Predictive Insights, a Phoenix-based nonpartisan pollster, finds 44 percent of Arizona Republican voters say they see Sinema favorably, compared with just 42 percent of Arizona’s Democratic voters.
By contrast, nearly three in four Democrats — 74 percent — say they view Sen. Mark Kelly (D) favorably, the poll found. At the same time, only 21 percent of Republican voters view Kelly, who is up for re-election later this year, in a favorable light.
A Sinema spokeswoman declined to comment on the poll’s results.
