The Arizona Senate Committee on Elections has adopted a bill requiring that all parts used in voting machines be built in the United States in order to strengthen security in the state’s voting systems. They are proving their commitment to delivering trustworthy and responsible results at polling places across the Grand Canyon State by taking this step toward safe elections.
Republican senators from Arizona, Sonny Borrelli and Anthony Kern, are pursuing legislation that would bypass Democratic governor Katie Hobbs and give the state legislature jurisdiction over election procedures. Due to its reliance on constitutional provisions giving legislators control over elections in the Grand Canyon State, the proposed reform veers into murky territory.

“The resolution states right up front that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in 2017 designated election infrastructure as critical infrastructure. In light of this, Republican senators said that Arizona should follow the Department of Defense policy of requiring the supply chain for the machines to be sourced in the U.S.,” the outlet added.
Republican Kari Lake of Arizona has said that she is “entertaining” the idea of running for the U.S. Senate.
In a recent interview with Charlie Kirk, Stacey Lake showed her commitment to politics by saying that she would consider running for the Senate in 2024 if a “decent ruling” is not reached for the Arizona gubernatorial race.
Kirk asked Lake whether she was “entertaining” running for the Senate. Lake answered: “Yes I am entertaining it. I mean my number one priority is our court case, and I have full confidence in our court case and I hope we will get a judge to do the right thing. But I’m also looking at what happens if we don’t get a decent ruling in that, and they want me to go away, they want our movement to go away. I represent we the people, and if they want us gone so badly that they’re willing to steal an election then I’m not going to let them have that, I won’t go away.”
“I’ve seen some internal polling that shows I’m the only Republican who can beat these other two. I find both of them incredibly dangerous to the people of Arizona, Kyrsten Sinema’s voting record being 93 percent of the time voting for Joe Biden’s agenda, I find Ruben Gallego being a self-admitted socialist really frightening for Arizona and if I’m the only Republican who can beat them, I would be willing to jump in,” Lake added.
A judge in Arizona has decided to expedite Lake’s lawsuit hearing. Her lawsuit was recently rejected by the state Supreme Court, leading to a remand back to lower courts where it will now be handled as a “special action petition.” All parties anticipate their day in court to come quickly, and a date has already been scheduled for March.

Lake’s team replied with great thought and subtlety when rumors circulated that she may be seriously considering a bid for the U.S. Senate seat now held by Krysten Sinema, who runs under the ‘Independent’ label.
“I’m told Kari Lake is considering running for the US Senate seat held by Kyrsten Sinema in 2024,” Kate Sullivan, a political correspondent for CNN, tweeted.
In their contest with incumbent Independent Senator Kyrsten Sinema and Democratic prospect Ruben Gallego, the Republican candidate has emerged as a definite front-runner, according to a new poll.
“The survey, released January 11 by the website Blueprint Polling, imagined a scenario in which Sinema, a former Democrat turned independent who’s held her Senate seat since 2019, runs for reelection against Lake and Gallego, a Democrat who represents the state’s 3rd Congressional District. Lake, who rumors say is considering running for the seat but has not confirmed this, polled at 36 percent, according to Blueprint, well ahead of the two rivals. Gallego trailed closely with 32 percent, while Sinema ran a distant third with 14 percent,” Deseret News reported.
In the three-way fight for Sen. Sinema’s seat, with just six votes polled, one undecided vote might end up being the deciding factor, providing her a competitive advantage to remain at the forefront of Arizona politics.
Sen. Sinema has received strong support from both Republican and Democratic voters after making the audacious decision to quit the Democratic Party. As a consequence, a survey indicates that she is likely to retain her position in Congress going ahead. “may be for the Republican party to nominate a candidate so flawed that moderate and conservative voters would abandon that person for the Independent Sinema.”
Kyrsten Sinema declared in December that she was leaving the Democratic Party and joining an independent group, causing a stir in the US Senate. As a result, the Democrats’ tenuous hold on the upper house has been reduced to a 51-50 majority. Political circles were shaken by her declaration as both parties fought for more sway over the legislative agenda.
Senator Sinema expressed her disgust at “partisanship” and its hold on both major parties in a strong statement published in the Arizona Republic. She committed to remain a Democrat until her 2024 re-election, but she also promised to cross party boundaries and act as a force for real change.
