By holding the line on excessive spending and opposing repeal of the filibuster, Sinema has spent some of her political capital on the Left to win over a critical mass of independents, as well as generate goodwill from Republicans. A newly released poll conducted by OH Predictive Insights, conducted from Sept. 7-12, shows how unique her political coalition of support is in these tribal times. Her net favorability is plus-7 (46 percent favorable, 39 percent unfavorable) in a state that President Biden carried by a single point. While just 56 percent of Democrats view her favorably, she holds an above-water (plus-6) rating with independents and unusually high 40 percent favorability rating among Republicans.

All told, her overall favorability rating is a notch higher than newly elected Sen. Mark Kelly. He polls between 43 and 44 percent against all Republicans in next year’s Senate race. His net favorability rating is plus-4, with 47 percent viewing him favorably and 43 percent viewing him unfavorably.

Angry progressive pundits are convinced that Sinema’s independent positioning will doom her in a Democratic primary. That is a total misread of her political situation.[/quote]

Yep. She's going to win re-election in 2024. Whether she runs as an Independent or a Democrat remains to be seen but she has substantial support among the Republicans, just like McCain did with the Democrats.

From 1987 - 2018 he represented Arizona. Winning election after election. In that time he had 3 'partner' Senators who couldn't keep or didn't want to stay in their seats. And in that time since - 3 Senators have sat in McCain's seat - with Mark Kelly being the latest.

If Sinema can be half as long-lived, she'll be doing good.[/quote]

Lol, she needs support among independents.  Arizona is about 1/3 each.  Her "popularity" has only increased among republicans.  It has decreased among the other 2/3.  It's not working because her electoral analysis is about as deep and well thought out as her reconcilliation bill position[/quote]

Did you read the PPs stats?

[i]While just 56 percent of Democrats view her favorably, she holds an above-water (plus-6) rating with independents and unusually high 40 percent favorability rating among Republicans.[/i]

Seems she has high ratings with Republicans, more positive than negative ratings with Democrats, and is good with independents as well. She seems to be just fine and better placed than anyone who would challenge her.[/quote]

Dig deeper.  Support among independents is dropping, it's just not negative yet, and the republican support growth is among the subset that won't vote for her no matter what.  It's all superficial.[/quote]

Like Democrats wouldn't vote for McCain? How else did he get 60% of the vote total in AZ? It's a special state. Party is important and principles for the Senators even more so.[/quote]
I just cannot figure out how you see “principled” in a woman who lied to get into office. The people who voted for her are rightly pissed. [/quote]
