Arizona Senate Race Heats Up

Arizona’s Legislative District 17 is heating up as two Republicans, Anthony Dunham and Christopher King, battle for a Senate seat once held by a candidate who lost in 2022 but reclaimed it in 2024. With early voting starting June 24 and Election Day July 21, the race is shaping up as a key test of GOP strategy in a district that leans Republican but has shown split results. King, a former Air Force member and school board member, champions job creation to tackle affordability, supports strict oversight of the Empowerment Scholarship Account, and backs water conservation while arguing Arizona is unfairly burdened in Colorado River negotiations. Dunham, a military veteran and former prison guard, brings a different perspective but shares the same party goal. This is a seat with momentum—and it’s a race to watch.
