In addition, Noble said, “The race has tightened and it’s fitting that the winner will be decided based on who can best turn out their voters on Election Day.”

Data from the Arizona Secretary of State’s Office showed that there are 3,716,161 registered voters. The number of Republican registered voters is 1,288,332 and 1,151,745 for Democrats. The remaining registered voters are Independents, Libertarian, and Green Party members.

As of Monday, the 1,586,783 voters already turned in ballots, higher than the 1,537,671 people who voted during 2014 midterm elections.

Take note that the Republican Party in Arizona has an edge over the Democratic Party in voter registration this election. Therefore, the turnout is very important for McSally and Sinema. In addition, it is imperative for both candidates to gain the votes of those outside their party particularly Independent voters to win the election.

Last week, the Green Party candidate, Angela Green dropped out of the race and endorsed Sinema.
