Poll: Trump-Backed Candidates Blake Masters, Kari Lake Hold Double-Digit Leads in Arizona Primary RacesNick Gilbertson 15 Jul 2022
Republican candidates for U.S. Senate and governor in Arizona – Blake Masters and Kari Lake – hold strong double-digit leads over the rest of their respective primary fields, according to a poll.
The Gateway Pundit/ Cygnal poll found Masters, president of the Thiel Foundation, is the most popular candidate among likely primary voters, garnering 29.9 percent of the response. He holds a 10.3 percentage point lead over the next closest competitor, Jim Lamon, at 19.6 percent. Mark Brnovich secured 17.9 percent of the response, while neither Michael McGuire nor Justin Olson breached the 10 percent mark, at 5.3 and 1.9 percent, respectively. Another 25.3 percent remained undecided. The winner of the primary will face the incumbent, Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ), in the general election.
Former President Donald J Trump endorsed Masters in June, and subsequent polls from the Trafalgar Group and Public Policy Polling both found Masters to be in first place above the rest of the primary field. In April, before receiving Trump’s nod, Masters was polling in third place, per a Trafalgar poll at the time.
