FILE - In this March 31, 2020, file photo, members of an Arizona National Guard unit pause while loading a helicopter with medical supplies to be taken to the remote Navajo Nation town of Kayenta in Phoenix. The coronavirus pandemic was Arizona's top news story of the year. The disease disrupted the economy, schools, government and the lives of nearly every state resident. Gov. Doug Ducey was forced to shut down schools in March and then much of the economy in an effort to slow the virus' spread. Ducey eased restrictions in mid-May and watched as the virus surged across the state, starting with massive numbers of infections on the Navajo Nation. (AP Photo/Ross D. Franklin, File)

The Federal Reserve is seen in Washington, Monday, Nov. 16, 2020. President Donald Trump's controversial nominee to the Federal Reserve is facing a razor-close vote in Congress. The Senate is voting Tuesday on the nomination of Judy Shelton to join the Federal Reserve's powerful board of governors. Shelton is an unusually caustic critic of the Fed and is opposed by three Republican senators. Expected absences from two other Republicans could block her from advancing in Tuesday’s vote.

Joshua Gonnie pauses for a photo Thursday, Oct. 29, 2020 in Phoenix. The 35-year-old registered Democrat voted for Donald Trump in 2016 partly because he was upset that Bernie Sanders wasn't the nominee. Also, as a Navajo man who grew up only seeing men lead tribal communities, Gonnie couldn't picture Hillary Clinton as president. This time, he voted for Joe Biden. He thinks the former vice-president would better serve Native Americans. (AP Photo/Terry Tang)

Gary Peters of Michigan is trying to hang onto his seat. The low-key, understated, maybe even “boring” senator is betting voters care more about his effectiveness as he desperately fights to keep a seat his party is counting on to take the Senate majority. Peters is finding it tougher to shake Republican John James. Michigan has something it has not seen in 20 years: a competitive Senate contest. (AP Photo/David Eggert, File)
