National Meet an anti-gun safety Senate candidate: Blake Masters

By Josh Israel -August 9, 2022 11:37 AM

Arizona Republican Senate nominee Blake Masters says gun violence is 'gangs. It's people in Chicago, St. Louis shooting each other. Very often, you know, Black people, frankly.'

Millionaire venture capitalist Blake Masters won the Arizona Republican Senate primary on Aug. 2 to challenge incumbent Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly in November. He is vowing to be the most pro-gun senator in his state's history.

Masters, who received only 39% of the primary vote, has touted his endorsement by Donald Trump, who wrote, "Blake will fight for our totally under-siege Second Amendment, and WIN! It is my great honor to give Blake Masters my Complete and Total Endorsement!"

Throughout the primary campaign, Masters put his passionate opposition to virtually any gun violence legislation and his pride in his own massive firearms cache at the forefront of his message. "I'll be the most pro-2A Senator that Arizona has ever had," he tweeted on Oct. 4, 2021. "I've got the guns to prove it. Every Monday, I'll tell you about one of them."
