The latest vote tallies Friday night shows Democrats still leading in Arizona's top four statewide races.

Howard Fischer PHOENIX — Incumbent Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly secured a six-year term in the Senate late Friday after a"red wave'' of votes from Maricopa County failed to materialize.

It was those day-of ballots that Masters, along with gubernatorial hopeful Kari Lake, had argued would swing so heavily in favor of GOP contenders to erase the leads the Democrats had held pretty much since the first results were announced Tuesday night. The bottom line left Hobbs on Friday night with 50.7% against Lake's 49.3% — leaving the race too close to call but still within Lake's grasp if close to 55% of the uncounted ballots swing her way. Hobbs has about a 31,000-vote lead.Democrat Adrian Fontes added nearly 41,000 new votes Friday from Maricopa County in his bid to be the state's chief elections officer against fewer than 32,000 for Republican Mark Finchem.
