Kari Lake has hinted at running for U.S. Senate in her latest video uploaded on X and Truth Social.
The 45-second video contains multiple clipped-up videos that speculate Lake will run for the Senate and concludes by saying “Stay tuned.”
The seat Lake is speculated to run for is currently held by Democrat Senator Sen. Kyrsten Sinema.

Here’s what AZ Central reported:
Kari Lake hinted at a U.S. Senate run again with a 45-second video posted Tuesday on social media that splices TV speculation on her next political move, calls for her to make a Senate run and a “stay tuned” ending.
The video dropped as Lake awaited a Maricopa County Superior Court judge’s ruling on her lawsuit seeking access to voters’ signed envelopes and grows out of her fruitless efforts to discredit the 2022 election that she narrowly lost to Gov. Katie Hobbs.
ADVERTISEMENTThe video doesn’t really clarify Lake’s intentions, but there is little suspense around her expected Senate run after months of rumors, speculation and occasional acknowledgement by Lake herself that she is considering a bid for the Senate seat held by Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, I-Ariz.

Per Politico:
Arizona Republican Kari Lake will launch a Senate run as soon as early next month, according to three people familiar with her plans.
Lake, an ardent supporter of former President Donald Trump who refused to concede her narrow loss in Arizona’s governor race last year, has been hinting at a bid for months. She has been active in national politics since her 2022 loss and this week alone she’s headlining events in Iowa and Michigan.
Her interest has largely frozen the GOP field for the seat, which is currently held by Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-Ariz.). Blake Masters, the state’s 2022 Senate nominee, appears to be lingering on the sidelines after preparing to enter the race in September.
There is no specific date set for Lake’s launch but it will almost certainly come in the month of October, according to a person familiar with her plans who was granted anonymity to speak candidly.
The Arizona race is a crucial swing state that could determine control of the Senate. Sinema’s switch to become an independent last year roiled the race for her seat. She has not said whether or not she will seek reelection and Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego already launched a Senate campaign.
