2014 AZ Primary elections results – Southern Arizona (updated)

by

AZ Blue Meanie has posted the early statewide results (and will do the final tally tomorrow), and I’m only reporting on the Southern Arizona races for U.S. Congress (CD 1, 2, 3), the Legislative Districts down here (Senate & House), and for the contested Justice of the Peace 1 race.

However, at my press time of Aug 26, 10 p.m. in the contested Republican statewide races: Doug Ducey is leading for Governor, Michele Reagan for Sec. of State, Mark Brnovich for AG, Diane  Douglas for Supe of Public Instruction, and Jeff DeWit for Treasurer.  There’s may be some upsets here esp. for AG and Superintendent of Public Instruction if the voting trend continues into the evening/morning.  The Dems had no primary races statewide except for Supe of Public Instruction and Dr. David Garcia is leading in that race.

UPDATED  8/27 (only for close races  in CD 1, LD 3 Senate, JP 1)

CD 1 (updated 9/2/14)

Ann Kirkpatrick (D), incumbent  50,585

Gary Kiehne (R)  18,157

Adam Kwasman (R) 15,069

Andy Tobin (R) 18,481

Too close to call between the Republicans in their primary.  Stay tuned.  UPDATE 9/2/14: House speaker Andy Tobin has the lead by 324 votes and rancher Kiehne has conceded today.
