They may have said they support those things, until there is a vote on any given issue we don’t know. And what we’ve seen is that both of them have changed their positions on issues and it doesn’t appear the changes are to appease constituents, but rather their corporate backers.
I mostly agree with you about the risk to Manchin’s seat, but the Dems should be able to keep a Democrat in Sinema’s seat. Arizona will only get more blue and her constituents are not happy with her because she’s moved to the right, not the other way around.
But neither is up for re-election until ‘24. People have short political memories.
Which issues in particular?
Sinema gets the following scores from various advocacy organizations according to GovTrack based on her voting record.
She gets a 13% from "The Club for Growth" which is a conservative economic think tank. (indicating a more liberal position on her part)
The other ones she receives decent scores on, especially on gay rights, women's rights, environmental causes, and marijuana reform.
