Gov. Doug Ducey has a vested interest in seeing Arizona stay red today, perhaps most of all in the state Senate.
That’s why the Republican governor has helped raise over $200,000 to help GOP senate members hold their offices.
Ducey said his interest is about maintaining fiscal responsibility in the legislature.
"I want to be supportive of people who have worked with me on these first two budgets," Ducey said. "And I want to see more people that want to see fiscal responsibility in our state. And I wanted to have a hand in the success of the election. So we decided to get involved."
Democrats may pick up some seats in the House, currently split 36-24 with a Republican majority. But the likelihood of the GOP losing its majority is slim.
But Republicans control only 17 of the 30 seats in the Senate. And if the Democrats win just two, that would create a 15-15 split.
