Only one race remains too close to call: Secretary of State. However, Democrat Katie Hobbs maintains a lead greater than the statutory trigger for an automatic recount (less than or equal to the lesser amount of one-tenth of 1 percent, or 200 votes).

UPDATE: Despite GOP claims, there is no evidence of voter fraud in Arizona. “They’ve offered no proof of their claims, other than pointing to the slow vote-counting process — which is still ongoing.” Steller column: Slow Arizona vote-counting doesn’t show fraud.

  1. Now Hobbs ahead by 13,171 so the lead is widening. And Kennedy’s lead is 16, 642 and I heard she has declared victory for this Corp. Commission race.

  2. Will Pima County Elections finish today? Still waiting for only close race left for PCC Governing Bd. District 5:

    Luis Gonzales 22,138
    Debi Chess Mabie 21,352

    Stay tuned. This is an open seat as the incumbent Luis Gonzales (with same name) is not running for re-election.
