Political analysts across the country will be watching closely as Arizona primary election numbers begin to trickle in after polls close on Aug. 2. They'll be especially interested to see which of the five Republican candidates for U.S. Senate emerges as the party’s nominee.
The winner will advance to challenge Democratic incumbent Sen. Mark Kelly, who was elected in a special election in 2020. Kelly doesn’t have a Democratic opponent so he automatically moves forward to face the GOP winner on Nov. 8.
