With immigration a burning issue, border state of Arizona features a top Senate race and two competitive House races, while popular Democratic Gov. Janet Napolitano appears to be cruising to re-election. Two-term Republican Sen. Jon Kyl holds a lead in polls over former state Democratic Party head Jim Pederson. The retirement of Republican Rep. Jim Kolbe sparked a battle focused on immigration, while Republican Rep. J.D. Hayworth has a surprisingly difficult re-election fight.
