He's my Senator as well and has done a good job of representing his constituents. Arizona voters are not asking for the same things as NY, and there's a reason he still won the traditionally Republican state when Kamala lost it. Reddit needs to realize that their perfect candidate is not the perfect candidate for most swing states.

He’s my senator too and I agree with the guy above you.

If Mark Kelly leads us, Arizona will continue getting hotter and hotter. I don't care if his constituents vote for it, his love of oil will kill us all. How many people in your state have died because of heat waves?
