Democratic Senate candidate Mark Kelly (D) has a 12-point lead over Sen. Martha McSally (R-Ariz.) in the Arizona Senate race, according to a Univision poll released Friday.

Kelly, a former astronaut, is challenging McSally, who lost the general election in 2018 to Sen. Krysten Sinema (D). McSally was later appointed to the Senate to succeed interim Sen. Jon Kyl (R), who filled Sen. John McCain's (R) seat following his death in 2018.

In the Univision poll, Kelly earned 48 percent support among registered voters, while McSally earned 36 percent support. Kelly polled significantly better than his opponent among Latino and black voters.

However, the Univision poll isn't the first sign of an uphill battle for McSally. A poll released earlier this week by OH Predictive Insights, a Phoenix-based polling firm, showed Kelly with 49 percent support among Arizona voters, compared with 42 percent for McSally.

7. I read that and I need to do this.

And the fact that he's an astronaut is just, I don't have the words. I am crazy about space and astronauts, and I grew up wanting to be one. But girls weren't allowed to be astronauts when I was a kid.

Anyway, back to this.




( I'm sick. I need to be silly, because it makes me feel better, so just ignore me.)

11. I call McSally

Senator Participation-Trophy. She's in my top five republicans I want to see losing their (re)elections this year.

I get 10 dire-sounding emails every day begging for money because he is tanking or losing badly or something.

13. His devotion to his savagely wounded wife has been deeply impressive throughout.

Why would anyone even consider voting for McSally?

The country will look a whole lot better if Mark Kelly does make it to the Senate.

Thanks for the great news.

14. Mark Kelly will win, Collins in Maine will lose, and Trump will lose.

President Biden will have the Senate and the House. Things will be totally different in 2021

15. Weird how they hate "participation trophies" so much then give the biggest one of all to McSally

16. I asked my daughter if she was voting for Sinema back in 2018

Her answer: "Well, you can vote for the savvy smart attorney/prosecutor or "CrazyLady". I'll take the smart one.

Her current project: getting her husband aned his apathetic 30 something friends to vote. She keeps telling them that is how they got rid of Sheriff Joe.

She has come a long way from 2008 when we literally dragged her to the polls for her first Presidential primary. I told her it was a once in a lifetime opportunity, to help choose either the first AA president or the first woman president.

My mother would be so proud

17. I'll keep my fingers crossed until November!❤
