There’s a close Democratic primary for Arizona secretary of state, too: Former Maricopa County Recorder Adrian Fontes leads state House Minority Leader Reginald Bolding 53 percent to 47 percent.

Votes are coming in fast: Engel is leading in the Democratic primary for Arizona’s 6th District with 94 percent of the vote reporting. Engel is a law professor who has served in the state legislature.

Norton went after Schweikert for his various ethics scandals, including a fine by the FEC for campaign violations and ethics violations handed down by the House Ethics Committee. Norton also had a big fundraising advantage thanks to his personal wealth. But Schweikert and his allies criticized Norton for running an insurance company that allegedly defrauded customers. They even sent out mailers to voters that implied Norton was gay, which prompted a lawsuit by another man pictured in the mailer.
