I'm not saying Sinema is going to win (way too many votes out) or saying this is even a good strategy going forward, but:

But thats not who Sinema is anymore. Or if it is, shes been hiding it for more than half of her career in elected office. Shes now the type of moderate more likely to punch a hippie, metaphorically speaking, than to dance with them. A look at her record, combined with interviews with Democrats and progressives in the state many of whom didnt want to go on the record criticizing their partys best chance to win statewide office since Janet Napolitanos gubernatorial victory in 2006 show a politician who is willing to buck progressive wishes and sometimes seems to go out of her way to aggravate the left.

While other Democrats in heavily diverse Sun Belt states Stacey Abrams in Georgia, Andrew Gillum in Florida and David Garcia in Arizona are trying to juice up minority turnout and expand the electorate, Sinema is equally focused on wooing independents and Republicans, while hoping progressives stay in line.


In competitive races, Abrams lost, Gillum lost, Garcia lost. All different races, sure, but maybe AZ was smart to nominate a more moderate democrat for its senate race considering the demographics of the state.
