Election Results: Gov. Katie Hobbs won a second term, while Democrats led in early returns across statewide races and several legislative contests, raising the prospect of gains in the Republican-controlled Legislature. Adrian Fontes held a strong early lead for secretary of state, and Kris Mayes appeared poised to retain the attorney general’s office. Congressional Races: Democrats Yassamin Ansari and Adelita Grijalva won reelection, while Democrat Elizabeth Lee led Republican Mark Lamb in the closely watched 5th District race; Democrat JoAnna Mendoza was ahead of incumbent Juan Ciscomani in the 6th. Those contests remain subject to final counts. Ballot Measures: Early returns showed voters rejecting Proposition 144, an election-law overhaul, and approving Proposition 318, which would restrict school sports teams by sex. Voters also appeared to reject Proposition 320 on school spending and approve Proposition 317 on cartel threats. Local Decisions: Gilbert Public Schools’ $136 million bond had a narrow early lead. Flood Recovery: Recent storms triggered evacuations and road closures across Arizona; flood warnings and closures remained in effect in parts of the state. Public Health: Officials confirmed a second New World screwworm case in Cochise County and warned livestock and pet owners to take precautions.
