In a video released on Tuesday, Senator Kyrsten Sinema announced that she will not be seeking reelection in 2024.

Sinema won her Senate seat in the 2018 election as a Democrat and switched to being an independent in 2022.



"I believe in my approach, but it's not what America wants right now. I love Arizona, and I am so proud of what we've delivered. Because I choose civility understanding, listening, working together to get stuff done, I will leave the Senate at the end of this year," Sinema said.

Sinema said that America has "arrived" at a "crossroad" and has chosen "anger and division."

She said "despite modernizing our infrastructure, ensuring clean water, delivering good jobs and safer communities, Americans still choose to retreat farther to their partisan corners. These solutions are considered failures, either because they're too much or not nearly enough. It's all or nothing. The outcome less important than beating the other guy. The only political victories that matter these days are symbolic, attacking your opponents on cable news or social media. Compromise is a dirty word."

"It's been an honor to serve Arizona for the past 20 years. Thank you," she said.


With the incumbent out of the race, the race is likely to result in a matchup between Democrat candidate Ruben Gallego and Republican candidate Kari Lake.

This is a breaking story and will be updated.
