Details to follow
https://results.arizona.vote/#/featured/4/0
Sinema 914,243
McSally 912,137
In the last 24 hours 129,757 votes were added.
There are 345,000 ballots left in Maricopa and an unknown amount in other counties but Pima should offset red counties
next update in 24 hours
KEY STATISTIC
AZ cuts off mail in vote on 10/31. All early mail in votes after that day must be walked in at the polls. (My last canvassing the remaining Democrats were mostly mail in voters that wanted to walk in their ballots to make sure they were counted.
At the end of the regular voting Sinema and McSally were within one percent at 49/48 percent.
The county recorders update their votes every 24 hours. "Late Early Mail in Ballots" have to go through the same two step process as other mail in ballots. They have to scrutinize the outer envelope and "accept it" and then it can be counted.
In the last 24 hours a total of 124,179 votes were added to the Secretary of State totals and 80,031 of them went to Sinema or 58.2%. This confirms estimates by the Sinema campaign and if it continues we are likely to hit 2.5% plurality over McSally.
We should know the outcome of this election in 24 hours.
You can watch poll workers working on live feeds.

Got it. That's why Ducey didn't want to appoint a high profile guy. He wants to run for it himself
