Key Arizona primaries to watch today

Arizona is conducting an earlier-than-usual July primary this Tuesday, featuring consequential races for governor, congressional seats, and key statewide election offices. Lawmakers passed legislation in February to move the date from August to July, ensuring sufficient preparation for the November general election. While Arizona is traditionally a red state, with Republicans holding six of nine House representative seats, the party is now seeking a rare opportunity to oust certain first-term officials during these critical contests.
