Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey (R) is considering at least three prominent Republicans as possible replacements to fill Sen. Jon Kyl’s (R) seat as donors vent about Rep. Martha McSally ’s (R) failed bid for the state’s other Senate seat this year.
McSally remains a contender, according to several sources with knowledge of Ducey’s decision-making process.
But a memo McSally’s team released after her nail-biter loss to Sen.-elect Kyrsten Sinema (D) angered donors who thought McSally had not shown any introspection about how she might have run the race differently, according to some who spoke with those donors.
In the memo, McSally’s campaign team pointed to Sinema’s significant spending advantage, aided by outside groups that spent far more than their Republican rivals.
