About this race

By: DDHQ Automation

In the upcoming Senate election on November 5, 2024, voters in Arizona will choose between two distinct candidates. Kari Lake, aged 55, a University of Iowa alum and former news anchor, represents the Republican Party. On the other side is Ruben Gallego, aged 44, a Harvard University graduate and current US House member running as the Democratic nominee. Incumbent Senator Krysten Sinema, an independent who caucuses with the Democrats, is not running for re-election.

Currently, the United States Senate is delicately balanced with 51 Democrats and 49 Republicans. In Arizona, the population is 56% non-Hispanic White, 32% Hispanic, 5% Black, 4% Asian, and 4% Native American.

Looking back at historical results, in 2020, Joe Biden narrowly won the presidential race by 0.3%, while Donald Trump carried it by 3.5% in 2016. In the 2018 Senate election, Kyrsten Sinema emerged victorious with a margin of 2.4%. With the current Senate evenly split and past elections reflecting close margins, the upcoming Senate race in Arizona is expected to be highly competitive, making it a key battleground to watch in the 2024 elections.
