Report: Kyrsten Sinema Prepares Independent 2024 Reelection Campaign

Jacob Bliss 7 Apr 2023 Washington, DC

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, the Democrat turned Independent from Arizona, is reportedly preparing a reelection campaign as an Independent, which will create a highly competitive three-party election

Sinema, who left the Democrat Party last year to become an Independent, is preparing to run as an Independent in her upcoming reelection campaign, according to the Wall Street Journal, which would set up a three-way battle between Sinema and whoever the Democrat and Republican nominee ends up being.

According to the report, Sinema gathered with her team this week in Phoenix for a staff retreat, with one meeting including slides and a timeline for the rest of the year for a potential run and when to have polling and opposition research done by, people familiar with the meeting told the Journal.

The Journal further explained:

    Ms. Sinema has already filed paperwork to run as an independent, a procedural step that allows her to raise money. To get on the ballot, she will need to gather an estimated 40,000-plus signatures from nonaffiliated voters, according to the Arizona secretary of state’s office. Gathering signatures, particularly of independents, can take time and the cost of such efforts works out to $5 to $25 per name, according to campaign consultants.

    …

    While running as an independent allows her to bypass what was expected to be a difficult Democratic primary, Ms. Sinema is seen as having a tricky path to re-election in a three-person race against the eventual Democratic and Republican nominees. Her support from Democratic voters has deteriorated, polls show, and it isn’t clear she could win enough independents and Republican votes to propel her to victory.

    …

    People close to Ms. Sinema said she saw a possible path to victory that includes keeping some Democratic voters, but her focus will be on bringing in a significant number of the state’s independent voters and soft Republicans turned off by their party’s rightward swing.

Don't agree with her on much, but I respect her for telling the pedophile terrorist Rats to take a hike.

[Maj. Bill Martin]

Don't agree with her on much either, but at least she seems to think for herself.

She wont be getting a Cyber Vote.  95% far left, and the far lefties hate her.  Go figure.

I don’t have much hope for Arizona these days.  The Californication is nearly complete as it has swung decisively hard to the left.

Cyber -- AZ doesn't have runoffs if no candidate receives a majority, does it?

If the answer be no, in a 3-way race, Sinema will probably eke out a win by plurality.

No run-offs.

This should split the democrats, but republicans will nominate the most egregious candidate they can find.
