Democrat Kyrsten Sinema Wins Arizona Senate Race, Flipping Second GOP Seat : NPR
Democrat Kyrsten Sinema has defeated Republican Martha McSally to win the Arizona Senate race, the Associated Press projected Monday evening.
With Sinema’s victory to flip the open seat of retiring GOP Sen. Jeff Flake, she becomes the first Democrat Arizona has elected to the Senate since 1988. She will not only be the state’s first female senator but will also be the first openly bisexual senator in U.S. history.
Shortly after the race was called in her favor, Sinema wrote on Twitter that she will “be an independent voice for all Arizonans.”
