Weird starting issue

I have a weird issue and I'm not sure if it's electrical or mechanical, when I go to start my car i have to turn the key really hard to get it to crank over.

I can turn the key to acc and on and everything fine but when it comes to actually cranking it i have to like really twist it to get it to start.

I have no idea if my starters going out or if there's some kind of loose connection in there somewhere but jesus its a pain in the ***.

Spray your key cyl with graphite, then report back.
