Watch live: Kari Lake announces Senate run
The Hill ^ | 10/10/2023 | Thehill.com

Posted on 10/10/2023 6:26:34 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Republican Kari Lake is slated Tuesday evening to announce her campaign for the Senate as she makes a bid for Sen. Kyrsten Sinema’s (I) seat in Arizona.

Lake, who previously ran for Arizona governor, registered her Senate campaign committee with the Federal Election Commission last week.

The former news anchor lost to now-Gov. Katie Hobbs (D) last year, drawing attention as a former President Trump-aligned candidate who was among the party’s most prominent election deniers running for office. Lake has not accepted the results of the 2022 gubernatorial election.

I hope she wins. She’s a smart chick.

Hell of an improvement over Captain Queeg I mean McStain. Give her a shot. She is a lot easier on the eyes than some chubby RINO car dealer chamber of commerce rotary club glad-hander.

You know who I mean — the Thom Tillis types who spend all their metabolism converting beef and alcohol into smells and phlegm.

If she wins she should run for governor 2 years into her senate term. It’s the principal of the thing. Make the incumbent prove she really won statewide. If she doesn’t become governor the remainder of the senate term is a nice fallback. Just remember, she’d be the strongest candidate. Choose the best senate successor.

She needs our financial support.

On second thought she might be a better senator. We need fighters there. Governors have to represent the nuts too.

*She needs our financial support.*

I sent her $100 for the governor’s run. Didn’t help. I’ll do it again-be happy to after the primary.

She will lose against Sinema, and she won't help carry Arizona if Trump picks her as a VP. It's not that I don't want her to win or be successful, but she has bad political instincts and I seriously question if she actually wants to win an election.

Mitch McConnell and the Maricopa RINOs will do everything they can to defeat her. The usual tactics. Lawfare. Vote fraud. Deprive her of money. Ronna McDaniel and the RNC will be AWOL.

I hope she wins. She would be the establishment’s worst nightmare.

She will be terrific in the senate. We need someone who can articulate our positions, who has great presence, and is smart as a whip.

I will vote for her, but we have continual shenanigan’s here that favor the Democrats. Hobbs was declared the loser by the Democrat friendly Asspress in 2018. Then all of a sudden, hallelujah...Sinema got an extra week of counting in the Phoenix slums. The last two elections were legendary memorable stuff too.

I can’t wait to see how they win this time. It’s like having bad guy champions in wrestling.

She has a great chance in a three way race

Sinema is likely running as an independent. My far-left looney Congressman Ruben Gallego wants the Dem nomination and will get it.

I'm not saying that means Lake wins. Only that it throws all the calculations off. Sinema is a smart and dangerous woman.

In a three-way race she might win.

One on one, she won’t.

I like her for any office. If she ran for u.s.congress in a heavily repub district she would win. She could cause a good enough ruckus in Washington and with a good resume and makes laws that make it a federal crime to cheat in elections, could get the governor’s job. If she shows good executive skills, financial, military skills...vp or prez is the next ticket

>She will lose against Sinema<

Sinema will siphon votes from the democrat candidate, or vice versa.

Lake’s chances look really good.
