Many of the contests near the top of the ballot were decided early in Arizona's primary election.
Republicans Andy Biggs for governor, Warren Petersen for attorney general and Alex Kolodin for secretary of state won their races and were preparing to square off against incumbent Democrats Katie Hobbs, Kris Mayes and Adrian Fontes in the Nov. 3 general election.
Full, unofficial election results from the July 21 primary were expected to take awhile. The more early ballots turned in at polling places and other locations, the longer it takes to count votes and determine tight races.

Here are some races still yet to be called on July 22.
Arizona's 1st Congressional District
In a district that cuts across north Phoenix, Scottsdale and other wealthy suburbs, Democrat Amish Shah built a sizable lead against Marlene Galán-Woods in a rematch from 2024. The winner will face Republican Jay Feely in a high-profile, high-dollar fight for an open seat that could help determine party control of Congress.
Arizona schools superintendent
Republican state Treasurer Kimberly Yee, running for public schools chief, was leading incumbent Tom Horne. The race between Horne and Yee has been contentious, with the pair butting heads over the state’s Empowerment Scholarship Account program and diversity, equity and inclusion policies in education.
Arizona treasurer
Republican Elijah Norton was leading Katherine Haley by a solid margin. Haley, president of the Arizona State Board of Education, is endorsed by current state Treasurer Kimberly Yee. Norton is a businessman and the former treasurer of the Arizona Republican Party with the backing of Turning Point USA.
The winner will face Democrat Nick Mansour, an entrepreneur and former chairman of the Arizona College of Nursing
Arizona Corporation Commission
Two Republicans will emerge from the primary to face Democratic opponents Clara Pratte and Jonathon Hill. The four candidates will contend for two seats on a five-member board that regulates the state's utilities.
Incumbent Kevin Thompson will be one. State Rep. Ralph Heap, R-Mesa, and incumbent Nick Myers were in a battle for the second spot on the ballot.
Scottsdale, Gilbert and other council races
Several at-large council races across metro Phoenix remained undecided, with contests in Scottsdale and Gilbert among the tightest.
Scottsdale is selecting three councilmembers, but the race is likely headed to a runoff election in November. Incumbents Solange Whitehead and Barry Graham were first and third out of eight contestants, with former state lawmaker Michelle Ugenti-Rita currently in the second spot.
Gilbert is selecting four Town Council members among seven candidates, and that race could be headed for a runoff, too. Incumbents Bobbi Buchli, Jim Torgeson and Chuck Bongiovanni were trailing in early returns.
