Lake will launch a U.S. Senate campaign for an Arizona seat in a splashy Scottsdale rally on Tuesday, having never conceded that she lost last year's race for Arizona governor.
She is trying out new messages and courting the support of national Republicans she’s insulted in the past.
That worries some Republicans who fear she will cost them a race that could decide control of the Senate.
But Lake became a national figure on the far right with her television appearances and her defense of Trump's election falsehoods.
