Kari Lake, the Arizona Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, is once again demonstrating her celebrity power and appeal to GOP voters. Unfortunately for her, those folks live in Florida.
Where she isn’t running.
While the Arizona Legislature works through efforts to repeal the 1864 abortion ban that Lake once referred to as a “great law,” she was busy campaigning in Pensacola Beach — just about as far away from Phoenix that an Arizona candidate can get — with Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz.
Kari Lake makes big bucks in Florida
Gaetz, in case you don’t know, could make a very strong case for himself as the ickiest, creepiest member of Congress.
The House Ethics Committee, which is led by a Republican, has an ongoing investigation into whether Mr. Gaetz had sex with a 17-year-old while he was serving in Congress.
Just last week, ABC News reported that another woman told the committee about a 2017 party Gaetz attended that “ featured alcohol and drugs including cocaine and MDMA.”
