2018 Arizona General Election Report November 21, 2018 A Word from Alexis Glascock The 2018 Midterm Election saw record turnout among Arizonan voters. Roughly twice the number of ballots were cast compared to the 2014 Midterm Election. This surge in turnout ultimately caused Election Night to become Election Month in Arizona as hundreds of thousands of early ballots and provisional ballots were tallied. Now, two weeks later, the results are finally official. Tracking election results is both exciting and necessary, but keep in mind that it is just the first step in the legislative process. This report is intended to continue the political and policy dialogue with you, our client, as we count down the days until the next legislative session begins on January 14th, 2019. We have highlighted races and results of special interest in the first several pages, with a full recap of results in federal, constitutional, and legislative offices, and ballot measures at the end.
