Lake may have lost the gubernatorial race —but she’s not short on opportunities.
According to a report from The Washington Examiner, Lake is polling strongly for a potential 2024 Senate seat in Arizona or even a seat next Donald Trump should he win the GOP nomination.
A poll from Emerson College released Tuesday shows Lake with a 31-percentage-point lead over her nearest Senate competitor. The firebrand conservative received 42% of the vote, compared to Republican candidate and Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb‘s 11%.

Trump has reportedly been eyeing some GOP presidential candidates and other conservative leaders as possible running mates. Lake, who is an adamant supporter of the former president, could be first in line if she decides against a Senate run.
Lake recently shared a post on X showing Trump’s strong polling lead in Arizona.
