Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, a Democrat, has won reelection, defeating Trump-backed GOP challenger Blake Masters in the race for the state's Senate seat, CBS News projected.
During the primary, Masters leaned into a far-right racist conspiracy known as the"great replacement theory," which claims that Democrats are supporting illegal immigration because they want to use people of color to subvert the power of white voters.
High gas prices and rising inflation handed Masters a line of attack against Kelly. And he also attempted to tie Kelly to President Biden's low favorability in the state. Instead, he blamed"big tech and big media" for"censor[ing] the Hunter Biden crime story," and putting their"thumb on the scale to get Joe Biden in there."
"Kari is winning with very little money, and if they say, 'How is your family," she says,"The election was rigged and stolen.' You'll lose if you go soft, you're going to lose that base," Trump was seen telling Masters on Tucker Carlson Originals, which has been following Masters' campaign.
