.sherifflamb1, the only Republican running for Senate in Arizona, has worked to raise his profile with the GOP base. Lamb has been focusing on immigration, bolstering border security, and criticizing COVID-19 vaccine requirements.
Lamb has been focusing on immigration, bolstering border security, and criticizing COVID-19 vaccine requirements over the last couple of years.After several disappointing statewide cycles for Republicans in the Grand Canyon State, the 50-year-old sheriff of a county located between Phoenix and Tucson is pitching himself as a candidate who can bring together his fractured party. He also says he can attract critical independent voters who have swung elections in Arizona in recent years.
“I can’t control what other people do or say, but I can control what I do and the effort that I put in,” Lamb said. “What I’m really trying to do is focus on the things we need to do, which includes fundraising, building name recognition, and really just showing the people of Arizona that I’m the proven conservative fighter.”
As the top law enforcement officer in Arizona’s third-most populous county, he said he encounters human and drug traffickers firsthand and continues to be critical of how the Biden administration has handled the southern border. Lamb has a complicated history regarding the election controversies that have roiled the GOP in recent years. He previously supported Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election, defended those involved at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, and said he would investigate voter fraud in the 2022 midterm elections.
Lamb appears to be trying to court the party’s more establishment wing after recently meeting with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and officials at the National Republican Senatorial Committee in Washington.
