The NFL Meets Congress: A Bizarre Election Faceoff in Arizona Jay Feely, a former New York Jets kicker, has won the Republican primary in Arizona's 6th congressional district.
He will face off against Amish Shah, his onetime team doctor and a Democrat, in the general election. Feely's victory was decisive, with a 14 point margin over his closest opponent.
His win comes after a highly publicized endorsement from Donald Trump. However, Trump's popularity in Arizona has been waning – a May survey found that only 40% of voters approve of him.
