Arizona Senate candidate Blake Masters (R) slammed Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) on Friday night, saying that the top Republican should have directed more campaign spending his way to take on Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) in the 2022 midterms, The Hill reports.
Said Masters: “Had he chosen to spend money in Arizona, this race would be over we’d be celebrating a Senate Majority right now.”
The Associated Press formally called the race for Kelly tonight.
