DSCC Releases New Video On Blake Masters: “Too Dangerous For Arizona”

Masters limping out of “scorched-earth,” “blood brawl” primary

In response to Arizona’s GOP Senate primary, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) is releasing a new video, “Too Dangerous For Arizona,” highlighting Blake Masters in his own words.

Watch “Too Dangerous For Arizona” Here:

From DSCC spokesperson Patrick Burgwinkle: “Masters is not like normal Arizonans – he has dangerous beliefs and plans that are deeply out of step with the state’s values and would be devastatingly harmful to Arizona’s families. Whether he’s threatening to privatize Social Security or pushing for a national abortion ban without exceptions for rape or incest, Masters has shown Arizonans time and again that he should have no place representing them in the Senate. Republicans’ scorched earth primary has exposed just how out-of-step Masters is with Arizona – and that’s exactly why voters will reject him in November.”
