what if Biden offered Sinema a seat on Federal Appeals Court bench (lifetime)

she would never have to worry about re-election again. She gets all the prestige and attention ---- and she's out of the Senate.

And she has to know she has zero chance of getting elected again in AZ as a D or an R.

5. In the 2022 election.

Until then, the governor (R) makes the interim appointment.

2. Unfortunately, that would hand control of the Senate to the QPublicans.

Gov. Doug Ducey would appoint her replacement.

6. Bingo

and while the Treason Turtle runs the Senate again, a Democratic victory for the open seat in AZ would not be certain (which Ducey could probably delay or set a date that would be most advantageous to Republicans).
