Election News 2010: Arizona

State of Play:

Sen. John McCain, R, may have represented his party in the last presidential election, but Republican voters in Arizona may not give him a free pass. His GOP primary opponent, former Rep. J.D. Hayworth, will probably make immigration a major issue as he seeks to dethrone McCain. This did not work for Hayworth in 2006, when he lost his seat after dedicating nearly his entire campaign to that single issue.

Primary election: August 24
