McSally is -20 in favorability. I don't even know how it's possible to be that bad. Can anyone clue me in why she's so unpopular even compared to Trump?
She went full Trump in a state that doesn't seem to want full Trump. But it also seems that even some people who like Trump are not a fan of hers, either.
She had to go full Trump if she wanted to be nominated. The problem is that to be nominated and be able to win a spot in the GE, you have to take steps that will undermine any GE campaign.
It really is a catch-22.
This basically. What the republican base in AZ wants is so far off from when the general population wants. It’s been like this for more than a decade now and it’s starting to catch up with the GOP, along with their pretty awful bench especially compared to the Dems in AZ which is one of the best benches in the country is only expediting the trend in AZ
Also keep in mind Sinema was largely considered a weaker candidate in 2018, yet she still won against mcsally, given that she’s up against the best candidate who’s been sitting on the dem bench for years, it’s rather hard to se her pulling it off. Plus she just kinda comes off as phony.
