With a paper-thin majority in the senate, Mark Kelly is in an important position and we can't be sure another Democrat from Arizona would fill his seat for the remainder of his term. The reason Cooper of North Carolina declined to be in the consideration is because if he left his state might be subject to the wacko world of a Trumper Lieutenant-Governor.

Trump and his ilk are busy attacking Walz' military record, busy trying to tear down everything. They aren't working to promote good causes their own side supports because there aren't any.
