Rep. Juan Ciscomani, R-Ariz., emerged victorious in the GOP primary for the 6th Congressional District, beating back a challenge from Kathleen Winn. The win sets the stage for a closely watched contest in November against Democrat Kristen Engel, who gave Ciscomani a tough fight in the 2022 election.
Ciscomani, who has emphasized his bipartisan approach, faced criticism from Winn, who argued that the district leans conservative and needs a representative who aligns with those values. Despite the challenge, Ciscomani secured the endorsement of former President Donald Trump, who praised his work on border security, military support, election integrity, and economic growth.
The upcoming race in Arizona’s 6th Congressional District is expected to be a tossup, with the Cook Political Report rating it an R+3. In 2022, Ciscomani narrowly defeated Engel, setting the stage for another competitive showdown this year.
The Arizona race is just one of many closely watched contests in the swing state, with the presidential election also expected to be closely contested. With a number of House and Senate races in play, all eyes are on Arizona as a crucial battleground in the upcoming election.
