Martha McSally trails Democrat Mark Kelly by 13 points in a key battleground U.S. Senate race that could hurt President Donald Trump's chances of winning Arizona in the Nov. 3 general election.A survey released this week by OH Predictive Insights shows Arizonans' support for McSally has narrowed steadily since April. McSally lost a close race to Democrat Sen. Kyrsten Sinema in 2018 and then was appointed to fill the seat vacated with the death of Sen.

A McConnell spokesman told the political news site the majority leader "is fully supportive" of McSally and "believes she's on a path to victory in November."McSally campaign manager Dylan Lefler told Politico he is confident "the Republican Party is fully invested in keeping Arizona red in November because control of the White House and the Senate depends on it."Kelly's is the , according to Politico.
