With the Supreme Court and circuit courts on the line, the makeup of the Senate has become critical to the restoration of Second Amendment rights in the 2020 election.
In Arizona, Senator Martha McSally is running against Gabby Giffords husband, Mark Kelly. Kelly is ahead of McSally in many polls. The polls may not catch all voters, but they are worrisome. The left sees the McSally Senate seat as vulnerable.
Kelly was instrumental in founding Americans for Responsible Solutions (ARS), a far-left gun control organization, after his wife, representative Giffords, was severely disabled in a mass shooting by a mentally disturbed, left-leaning gunman.
It is difficult to have pushed more for more restrictions on gun ownership than Mark Kelly has. He has been the brains behind ARS, because his wife is disabled.
The ARS merged with the former Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence (LCPVG). The LCPVG has been in the forefront of pushing for the extreme restrictions on Second Amendment rights which now exist in California.
Organizations focused against Second Amendment rights frequently change their names to better fool people about their intentions.
The new organization is called the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence.
Restrictions on Second Amendment rights are not popular in Arizona.
The job of the old media has morphed into fooling enough of the people enough of the time to regain power. That translates into defeating Martha McSally and pushing Mark Kelly across the finish line in Arizona.
Ads by Kelly focus on his military service and time as an astronaut. They never mention his radical gun control efforts. He hides behind the familiar I own lots of guns tactic. Owing lots of guns and supporting lots of

He is playing "play it safe" campaign.
How many times does she have to lose. Sheesh
Going to bat for that woman is a fools errand. Still it’s a hold your nose vote and we need excited voters. The semi-looker physician was too conservative and Az sends flakes like Flake/MaCain. Gotta be the Morman element.
If all gun owners voted for the GOP candidate we’d be winning all of these races.
He said it was a "straw purchase."
Mark Kelly, the celebrity poster child used by Colorado Democrats to testify on behalf of universal background checks, where he lied about the number of guns bought in Colorado without one...
Republican control of the Senate, with Donald Trump as President, gives us an originalist and textualist Supreme Court for generations.
That is far more important than bits and pieces of regulatory reform.
Pro-gun candidates often lose because gun owners are too lazy to vote, or have unrealistic 'purity' tests. And unfortunately, some gun owners would rather spend $2000 AFTER the election (for some 'assault weapon', or mags, or ammo that the Dems are about to ban), rather than donate $20 BEFORE the election, to help keep the gun-grabber from ever being elected.
There is ZERO doubt that Kelly is focused on banning guns, mags, and ammo, any way & every way he can. It's as predictable as the rising of the sun. And Kelly shouldn't even be close in the polls, given the number of gun owners in the State. If McSally loses, running against Captain Gun-Grabber, it will just prove that way too many Arizona gun owners are f*cking idiots...
McSally should have been hammering Uncle Fester on gun control from the beginning. She has not campaigned effectively at all, IMO.
AZ is all about Trump. If he wins, McSally wins. And he’ll win. Blue AZ is an MSM fantasy
We still need her in the Senate.
The Senate should be a Republican lake.
You are so right. She’s not hammering the fact that he is pro gun control.
She needs to stop with the military ads and focus more on guns and his Chinese connections.
I don’t want to vote for her but I don’t want him to become the next senator so I’m stuck voting for her.
I cannot vote for McSally but I am sending money to her campaign. We need that Senate seat.
Agreed, especially with Collins in trouble.
Well lose Colorado, NC, Maine, and probably Arizona
I hope we pick up Michigan, Minnesota, and Alabama (give me)
AZ isn’t in play. McSally is a terrible candidate who was doomed to lose this election the minute dumbass Ducey appointed her.
Answer to your tag line, NO!
Unfortunately McSally is also playing it safe when she can’t afford to, she needs to hammer Kelly on his gun grabbing.
I agree. McSally is an idiot, never Trumper. I’ll vote for her but she’s blowing it because she’s totally out of touch. Her ads stink. Kelly’s ads are pretty good, I have to admit. McSally’s ads are all attack. I don’t think I’ve seen her talking in any of her ads. McSally sucks but I’ll vote for her because Kelly is worse.
Well,
She won last time! Fontes stole the election in 2018 from her to Sinema.
I hate the way the left uses poor Gabby Giffords. Gabby was very much pro 2cd Amendment. Mark Kelly is the worst at using and distorting her memory.
