Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly won his bid for reelection Friday in the crucial swing state of Arizona, putting his party one victory away from clinching control of the chamber for the next two years of Joe Biden’s presidency.
Kelly and Giffords were at an Elton John concert in Phoenix on Friday night when The Associated Press called the race, campaign spokesperson Sarah Guggenheimer said. Maricopa County reported a large batch of results that increased Kelly's lead and made clear Masters could not make up the difference with the remaining ballots.
Kelly’s 2022 campaign largely focused on his support for abortion rights, protecting Social Security, lowering drug prices and ensuring a stable water supply in the midst of a drought, which has curtailed Arizona’s cut of Colorado River water., particularly on border security, and played down his Democratic affiliation amid angst about the state of the economy.
