Hypothetical Senate primary: Kyrsten Sinema vs. Ruben Gallego?

If Mark Kelly loses in 2022, could he run against Sinema?

I don't think he is that far to the left of Sinema.

They say there are other democrats besides Manchin and Sinema that want to protect the filibuster. But said democrats are hiding behind the aforementioned.

I am wondering if Mark Kelly is one of those. Giffords was a former Republican before switching parties and running for congress and she was part of the blue dog coalition.

She is going to get primaried by someone from the progressive wing.

If Sinema were smart, she'd brand herself as a centrist but not stand in the way of Joe Biden's agenda. She could support some progressive legislation and veto others. Blocking the $15 minimum wage would have been a lot less harmful to her future prospects if she didn't curtsy and draw attention to herself.

She should be more like Amy Klobuchar in terms of her voting record.
