Republican Kari Lake faced off against Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego on Wednesday in a highly anticipated debate as they vie for a seat in the U.S. Senate representing Arizona. The debate, marked by sharp exchanges, was specially important for Lake, as she trails Gallego by 12 percentage points according to a survey by SoCal Strategies.
