In addition to targeting Attorney General Mark Brnovich, the campaign to pass new renewable energy mandates is jumping into three key state Senate races, and is also spending to help two Democrats running for the Corporation Commission.

Clean Energy for a Healthy Arizona, the campaign committee supporting Proposition 127, filed campaign finance reports this week disclosing that it is spending nearly $55,000 apiece opposing Republican state Sens. Sylvia Allen and Kate Brophy McGee, who are running for re-election, and House Speaker J.D. Mesnard, who is running for an open Senate seat in his legislative district. The committee also reported that it’s spending $250,000 to aid Sandra Kennedy and Kiana Sears, the Democratic nominees for the Corporation Commission.

Democrats may have a rare opportunity to tie or even win control of the state Senate this year, and among the districts they’re eying are those represented by Allen, Brophy McGee and Mesnard. Republicans currently have a 17-13 advantage over the Democrats in the Senate.
