AZ Senate race: Gallego leads in hypothetical poll
Democratic Congressman Ruben Gallego leads in a hypothetical three-way race for Independent Kyrsten Sinema's Senate seat, who has still not said if she will run for re-election. According to a new poll, Gallego leads with 36%, compared to 30% for Republican Kari Lake, and 21% for Sinema. Thirteen percent remain undecided. In a matchup of just Gallego and Lake, Gallego's lead jumps to 46%, with 39% for Lake. Fifteen percent are undecided. The poll was conducted by Emerson College Polling and The Hill. The same poll shows Arizona leaning toward Donald Trump in a one-on-one matchup with President Joe Biden.
