This is a race, it is a lean republican race just like VA. NY Times have it a closely watched race.
STOP THE PRESSES
THE NEW YORK TIMES LISTS THIS AS A LEAN REPUBLICAN RACE OF COURSE PEDERSON COULD WIN.
The site only lists 7 seats as strong GOP--Mississippi (sorry Harry), Wyoming, Maine, Texas, Utah, Nevada and Indiana: all of which are safer than Arizona.
The site includes Michigan and Nebraska as lean Democrat-the Democrats will easily win both seats.
So I fail to see your point about this being a competitive race.
