Summary
Democratic Congressman Ruben Gallego has won the Arizona Senate race, becoming the state’s first Latino senator and defeating far-right candidate Kari Lake.
Gallego will replace Kyrsten Sinema, a former Democrat turned independent who did not seek re-election.
Gallego’s lead in fundraising and consistent polling advantage helped secure his 50% to 48% victory. Lake struggled to attract moderate Republicans and independents, partly due to her past criticisms of John McCain.
This win gives Republicans a 52-47 Senate majority, as Democrats lost seats in West Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Montana.
It’s always fun to see Kari Lake get beat
She is such a twat
I just want to say one last “Fuck you Kyrsten Sinema, you traitorous piece of shit.”
I love the logic of electing their first Latino senator at the same time as a president to boot him out of the country
The American electorate is nothing if not incoherent.
Too bad it won’t help.
It still helps. You don’t want Kari Lake around.
Like I said to FuglyDuck, Trump is going to appoint her to his cabinet. He really loves her.
I’m guessing Hope Hicks isn’t interested in being his “pants steamer” for a second time?
I dunno.
it seems to me keeping Kari Lake out of elected office- any elected office is a good thing.
Maybe, but I guarantee you Trump will appoint her to his cabinet.
somebody has to protect the puppies… right?
(Honestly, i bet i depends if she gives him a blowjob or not. Yeah. i’m throwing up a little just writing that. Only advice i have is… don’t. Also. if you’re dealing overpoweringly awful smells; including rancid shit. Get some tiger balm, and lather that on your upper lip, just below your nose.) (don’t tell people that work with trump. they deserve that torture.)
If she hasn’t already, considering how much he slobbers over her all the time, I’d be surprised.
Every senate/house seat the Democrata win makes it all the harder for Republicans to pass any significant legislation.
Just look at what happened with both Trump and Biden. Slim majorities in both house and senate led to a lot of legislation getting killed. Just recall how long it took the house to pick a speaker, while Republicans may have a majority it doesn’t mean they can weild it.
When you have a majority and they all toe the line, it doesn’t make it harder.
It also helps Ruben Gallego continue to move up in his political career.
Bold of you to think any Democrat will have a legitimate political career anymore.
It’s because she sucked too much.
