Trent Franks, who resigned because he kept asking female staffers to be surrogate mothers for his babies. Democrats were competitive in that special election and in 2018 but lost 60-40 in 2020 and then Lesko ran unopposed in 2022. Should be an interesting GOP primary. Blake Masters could make it competitive for Ds if he backs off of the Arizona Senate race and runs here instead.

She's done great things and has been a wildly successful speaker, but she, like the rest of the gerontocracy, need to go.
I don’t love that she’s running again, but she has been primaried for years, she just keeps winning.
