The 2024 United States Senate election in Arizona will be held on November 5, 2024. Primary elections will take place on August 6, 2024.[1]
Incumbent first-term independent Senator Kyrsten Sinema was first elected as a Democrat in 2018 with roughly 50% of the vote, succeeding retiring Republican Senator Jeff Flake. Sinema left the Democratic Party in December 2022 and filed paperwork to run for reelection as an independent in April 2023.[2] However, in March 2024, Sinema announced that she will not run for a second term in office.[3] U.S. Representative Ruben Gallego is seeking the Democratic nomination for Senate, while Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb and 2022 Republican gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake are running for the Republican nomination.
Background
The race is considered to be a tossup given the state's nearly even partisan lean; however, most polls show Gallego to be the favorite to win.[4][5] Arizona was once considered a red state, but has become a purple state.[6][7] Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump won Arizona by 3.5% in 2016,[8] and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden prevailed by 0.3% in 2020.[9]

Democratic primary
Prior to her departure from the Democratic Party, Sinema was considered highly vulnerable to a primary challenge due to her opposition to several parts of the Democratic Party's legislative agenda. The most prominent dispute between Sinema and the Party related to Build Back Better Act provisions concerning lowering prescription drug prices. Other areas of disagreement included the federal minimum wage and filibuster reform. Prospective polling showed Sinema trailing all of her potential challengers by wide margins, with U.S. Representative Ruben Gallego being viewed by numerous political analysts as the frontrunner to challenge her.[14] On January 22, 2022, the Arizona Democratic Party voted overwhelmingly to censure Sinema for a second time for voting against a carve-out to the Senate filibuster rule in a Democratic-led effort to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.[15]
During the congressional consideration of the Inflation Reduction Act in August 2022, Sinema did not initially announce support for the bill. She stated her support for the legislation only after Democratic leaders agreed to remove a provision closing the so-called carried interest tax loophole, the closure of which would have raised taxes on hedge fund owners and investment managers.[16] This action renewed calls from Democrats for Sinema to face a primary opponent in her next election.[17]
Sinema left the Democratic Party in December 2022 and registered as an independent.[2]
