Gov. Ducey made the announcement on Tuesday about McSally's appointment. She had lost to Democrat Kyrsten Sinema in November for the other Senate in a close election. Sinema, a staunch leftist, has made a number of disparaging remarks about Arizonans and the state, so her winning over McSally proves to a degree that some people are too stupid to care or too uninformed to know that the person you voted for basically called you a 'meth-head.'
“All her life, Martha has put service first — leading in the toughest of fights and at the toughest of times,” Ducey said in a statement. “With her experience and long record of service, Martha is uniquely qualified to step up and fight for Arizona’s interests in the U.S. Senate. I thank her for taking on this significant responsibility and look forward to working with her and Senator-Elect Sinema to get positive things done.”
McSally, who distinguished herself early in her career as the first female fighter pilot to serve in combat, said she was “humbled and grateful” for the opportunity to serve.
Sinema distinguished herself early in her career as a member of Code Pink and said that she didn't care if someone joins the Taliban to shoot U.S. troops (a comment McSally called "treason"). She also defended anarchists destroying property, characterized U.S. soldiers as evil demons, and called Arizona "a meth lab of democracy."

It will be interesting to see how the two new Arizona senators get along.
“I am humbled and grateful to have this opportunity to serve and be a voice for all Arizonans,” McSally’s statement said. “I look forward to working with Senator-Elect Kyrsten Sinema and getting to work from day one.”
After McCain’s passed away in August, Kyl returned to the upper chamber at Ducey’s request after retiring his Senate seat in 2013. Kyl announced last week that he would serve through the end of the current legislative session and vacate his seat effective December 31.
Cindy McCain expressed hope that McSally would continue her husband’s legacy of service above self interest in a Tuesday tweet and Joy Behar is a schmuck. Just saying.
“My husband’s greatest legacy was placing service to AZ & USA ahead of his own self-interest,” she tweeted. “I respect @dougducey’s decision to appoint @RepMcSally to fill the remainder of his term. Arizonans will be pulling for her, hoping that she will follow his example of selfless leadership.”
McSally’s seat will once again be on the ballot in 2020 and it is hoped by everyone with a brain that she wins the 2020 election.
