Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich, a Republican, announced his bid for the U.S. Senate on Thursday, portraying himself as a trusted and proven leader who would fight for secure borders, oppose defunding the police, and defend civil liberties.
Brnovich, who has served as the state’s top prosecutor since 2015, said in a June 10 campaign video that “mistrust runs deep” among voters because they have “entrusted elected officials to protect us and our freedoms, and they failed,” with the barb apparently aimed at Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.), whose image serves as the backdrop for that fragment of the video.
