Just wanted to mention this because I don't think people realize (as I did not until this morning) that Kelly is still only finishing out McCain's term that ends in 2022. If McSally had won, she too would have had to do it all over again in 2022. This is mentioned in this article from 2018. Last paragraph. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rep-martha-mcsally-appointed-to-finish-john-mccains-term-in-senate/
So,...while having Kelly for 2 years still sucks donkey balls,...it means that he is unlikely to do TOO much radical stuff right away, because that's a short enough time for centrist moderate voters to remember sh!t. Very likely, he will do as Sinema has and will try to walk the moderate "reasonable" line until 2022, planning to go full Democrat pisshead for the next 6 years after winning that one.
