Kyrsten Sinema Leaves the Democrat Party
9 Dec 2022
Now Senator Sinema won’t face a challenge in the Democratic primary, because she’s an independent — and what will Republicans do, both the voters and the state party? Does she guarantee Republicans win? Clay speculates on possible answers in the audio clip above.
In a natural extension of my service since I was first elected to Congress, I have joined the growing numbers of Arizonans who reject party politics by declaring my independence from the broken partisan system in Washington and formally registering as an Arizona Independent. 1/3 pic.twitter.com/jUQHAeuxym

With @SenatorSinema leaving the Democrats and becoming an independent @Sen_JoeManchin can now leave the Democrats and give himself a chance in 2024. Or he can stay a Democrat and get smoked in 2024. Does he retire or flip? Only one choice if he wants to stay in politics.
