The wording of a decision by the Arizona Supreme Court to let Kari Lake pursue one remaining election claim may make it difficult, if not impossible, for her to prove.

A recount of votes has confirmed Democrat Kris Mayes narrowly defeated Republican Abraham Hamadeh in the Arizona attorney general’s race, one of the closest elections in state history.

The apparently losing candidate for attorney general is asking a judge to block the secretary of state from declaring Kris Mayes the winner.

Democrat Kris Mayes will be the next attorney general of Arizona, pending a recount.

Governor-elect Katie Hobbs laid out her priorities for the next four years, promising to work with the Republican-controlled Legislature to solve problems — but with a political warning to those who choose a different path.

The dynamics of the state and local election process with votes still being tallied into the early hours Wednesday, and likely continuing throughout the week, changed the course of one local Governing Board race and prompted an incumbent in another to congratulate two new board candidates.

Beneath a sign that predicted a “red wave” for the Yavapai County Republican Party, the three GOP candidates for the Arizona State Legislature in District 1 ended election night on Tuesday, Nov. 8 with comfortable leads.
In the most contested, and contentious, Governing Board race in recent Prescott history, the voters appear to have opted to support the pro-district team of candidates for both the two, four-year seats and the two-year seat that included an incumbent and a first-time Republican conservative candidate.
