WATCH LIVE: 2022 Arizona Senate Debate featuring Mark Kelly, Blake Masters and Marc Victor
By The Editors
The 2022 election for U.S. Senator from Arizona may well determine the balance of power in the upper chamber of Congress. The debate between Blake Masters and Mark Kelly (and libertarian candidate Mark Victor) for this critical seat is presented below in its entirety.
As the readers of The Prickly Pear know, we strongly endorse Blake Masters in this race. We believe our nation is in serious jeopardy with the current White House and Congress imposing a radical leftist agenda on all Americans, their families, and our liberty. We urge all readers to watch this debate closely and decide which candidate most closely reflects Arizonans’ concerns and needs at this difficult time and in the years ahead.
Please be aware that in close races, the libertarian candidate draws votes predominantly away from the conservative candidate. Despite the small, single digit percentage of votes libertarian candidates typically achieve, it is sometimes enough to secure the election for the other major candidate.
We have seen multiple close and key races over the years determined by this phenomenon. The United States Senate should not stay in Democrat hands given the terrible results and impact on all Americans over the past two years. Please factor in this important detail when you cast your vote for this critical office which may determine control of the U.S. Senate.

How Not to Vote in Arizona
The 2022 midterm election is fast approaching. The system for voting in Arizona is predominantly by mail-in ballots (around 80% of all ballots). The ballots will be mailed out to all voters registered for mail-in voting on October 12th. The actual ‘day’ of the election is Tuesday November 8, 37 days later.
Once upon a time when all voters went to the polls on the day of election, the tabulated results were announced the night of the election date. If the result of a specific race was razor thin and less than a legislated margin, a recount might prevent the naming of a winner. That was the exception for calling the results of the election.
It is still this way in most first world countries but not the United States and certainly not Arizona. Voting rules (some unconstitutional) were dramatically altered in many states in 2020 because of the Covid pandemic.
We at The Prickly Pear are very concerned about the flaws in Arizona’s predominant ‘mail-in’ voting system.
