Blake Masters plans another Arizona Senate bid — this time for Sinema’s seat

Masters lost to Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly last year — a critical blow to Republicans’ bid to take back the upper chamber.

Blake Masters speaks at a rally.
Blake Masters is making plans to launch another Arizona Senate bid, potentially as soon as next week, according to three people familiar with the matter.
Masters did not reply to a request for comment. Masters won the GOP nomination last year but lost to Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly in a critical swing state.
Former gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake’s advisers say she is expected to announce a Senate campaign in early fall, though some Republicans are skeptical Lake and Masters would run for the same seat. Pinal County sheriff Mark Lamb is another GOP candidate.
