Meet Trump’s favorite House Republican candidate
High-priority alert based on source significance and keyword relevance.
Context
What happened: President Donald Trump and his allies mounted a last-minute effort to support his longtime friend Jay Feely in a battleground Arizona House district, where Feely faces Democrat Amish Shah.
Key numbers: GOP groups spent more than $22 million to boost Feely.
Why it matters: The race is seen as a tossup, and Feely has had to distance himself from Trump, skipping an Oct. 14 rally, as Shah ties him to the president. Trump officials say losing the seat could let Democrats hold it for several elections.
