“Jim Lamon, the chairperson of a solar power company and a supporter of former President Donald Trump, has launched a U.S. Senate campaign, hoping to oust incumbent Sen. Mark Kelly,” the Arizona Republic reports.
“He has made political contributions to Trump, to unsuccessful GOP Senate candidate Kelli Ward, who now chairs the Arizona Republican Party, to Kris Kobach, the former Kansas Secretary of State who lost a GOP primary for Senate in 2020, and to former Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., who bucked Trump and did not run for re-election in 2018.”
