Every endorsement in Ruben Gallego, Kari Lake Senate race
When it comes to endorsements, Kari Lake doesn't have many friends in Arizona. The race for the vacant U.S. Senate seat is set to be contested by Ruben Gallego and Kari Lake, a Republican former newscaster who lost the 2022 race for governor. Both candidates have received endorsements from various organizations, but their endorsements mirror each other's inversely. Gallegeo has a long list of endorsements from Arizonans and few from D.C., while Lake has a more limited list of D. C. elites and only a handful from Arizona. Both are expected to win their party's nominations and face each other in November. The endorsements have been tracked down from both candidates' websites.

Now that U.S. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema has decided not to run for reelection , the race to fill her seat is between two presumptive frontrunners: U.S. Rep. Ruben Gallego, a Phoenix Democrat and U.S. Marines veteran, and Kari Lake, a Republican former newscaster who lost the 2022 race for governor.With Sinema out, more organizations have been throwing endorsements over to Gallego, so we decided it was a good time to start tracking endorsements of both candidates. Almost all endorsements listed below were taken from the websites of each campaign.Interestingly, the candidates' endorsements from politicians mirror each other inversely: Gallego has a long list of endorsements from Arizonans and few from D.C., while Lake boasts a list of endorsements from D.C. elites and only a handful from Arizona. That's ironic considering Lake rails against "the Swamp" and the people who run the federal government, something she posted about on Instagram as As of April 2, the vast majority of Lake’s endorsements come from 20 U.S. senators and nine U.S. representatives in states that aren’t Arizona, which checks out considering the amount of time she has spent campaigning outside the state . She has four endorsements from Arizona politicians and groups.Gallego has 30 endorsements from Arizona officeholders and three more from notable formers, including U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Tucson).Eight local unions have endorsed Gallego and none has endorsed Lake.Twelve organizations have endorsed Gallego while one has endorsed Lake.Lake and Gallego face a July 30 primary, though both are expected to win their party's nominations and face one another in November.Here’s a list of which politicians and organizations have endorsed the two candidates.State Rep.
