After leaving the Democratic Party to become an independent in December, there has been speculation over whether Sinema would run for her Senate seat again.

Ruben Gallegoinclude former Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake and former Senate candidate Blake Masters, along with Karrin Taylor Robson, who lost to Lake in the primary for governor.

The article quotes Sinema as giving a colorful reason for why she no longer attends Democratic caucus lunches.. "I don't really need to be there for that. That's an hour and a half twice a week that I can get back."
