slate.com/news-and-politics/2024/03/sinema-arizona-senate-lake-gallego-democrats-independent.html
Quick Glance: Sen. Kyrsten Sinema's Decision Not to Seek Re-election
- The independent senator, Sinema, announced on Tuesday her choice not to pursue re-election, leading to her departure from the Senate after a single term.
- Sinema's opting out sets the stage for a challenging and costly battle for her position, with top Republican contender Kari Lake and leading Democrat Ruben Gallego already in the race to succeed her.
- In a video message, Sinema emphasized her departure from the Senate due to the prevailing bipartisan conflict and the divergence between her approach and the current desires of America.
- Sinema's political journey has been remarkable, transitioning from a Green Party organizer to the GOP's former favorite Democrat in the U.S. Senate. Following an irreparable split with Arizona Democrats, she shifted from her party in 2022 to operate as an independent, aiding Democrats in maintaining Senate control.
