Kyrsten Sinema in the 2024 primary, close to three-quarters expressing the desire to replace her with another Democrat, according to a&nbsp;Public Opinion Pulse (AZPOP) survey OH Predictive Insights (OHPI) released Monday.<\/p>\n<p>While the survey found Sinema\u2019s favorability nearly split among all respondents, 42 percent viewing her favorably and 45 percent viewing her unfavorably, she tends to be more popular among Republicans than members of her own party, who seek to oust her.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>The Arizona senator has a net favorable view among Republicans, 45 percent to 42 percent, but her numbers with Democrats are in the negatives, as 42 percent view her favorably. Forty-seven percent of Democrats, however, view her unfavorably.&nbsp;Mike Noble, OHPI chief of research, warned that the waning popularity among Democrats \u201ccould prove fatal in 2024.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When asked whom they prefer \u2014 Sinema, a Republican, or a Democrat other than Sinema to serve as senator \u2014 just more than a quarter of Democrats, 26 percent, chose Sinema. The vast majority, 72 percent, chose a Democrat other than the incumbent.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, however, a slightly plurality, 38 percent, said a Republican, followed by 36 percent who said a Democrat other than Sinema, and 26 percent who chose the sitting senator:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<blockquote readability=\"11\">\n<p>Senator Sinema also currently trails in hypothetical primary matchups. Against Phoenix Rep. Ruben Gallego, 47% said that they would support Gallego while 24% said that they would support Sinema. Rep. Greg Stanton, Sinema\u2019s successor in Congress, leads his predecessor by an identical margin in a hypothetical primary match-up. Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction Kathy Hoffman also bests Sinema by 20 points.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>One of the main frustrations among Democrats is Sinema\u2019s refusal to oppose the filibuster, the survey added.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The survey, taken November 1 \u2013 8, 2021, among 713 Arizona registered voters, has a margin of error of +\/- 3.3 percent.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Sinema has been at the center of controversies over her opposition to certain aspects of the infrastructure bill during the negotiation process.
