PHOENIX — All nine of the Arizona congressional races in the 2024 general election were finally settled on Wednesday.

None of the seats changed party hands, with Republicans holding onto six spots and Democrats three.

The last domino didn’t fall until Wednesday, eight days after Election Day, when Republican Rep. Juan Ciscomani declared victory after Democratic challenger Kirsten Engel conceded in the 6th Congressional District. The Associated Press called it for the Republican later that night.

The eight other Arizona congressional races were all settled by Sunday night.

Who won the other Arizona Congressional races?

Here’s a look at what happened in the other Arizona congressional races:

CD1: The Associated Press called the northeastern Maricopa County district for incumbent Republican Rep. David Schweikert on Sunday night. Schweikert fended off a strong challenge from Democrat Amish Shah, a former state lawmaker, to secure his eighth term in Congress.

CD2: Voters in the northeastern Arizona district, which includes Flagstaff, returned Republican Rep. Eli Crane to Congress for a second term. He turned back former Navajo Nation President Jonathan Nez in a race called by The Associated Press on Saturday evening.

CD3: It didn’t take long for The Associated Press to call the race to succeed Ruben Gallego in this heavily Democratic Phoenix district. Former Phoenix City Councilwoman Yassamin Ansari was projected as the winner over Republican Jeff Zink soon after the results started coming in on election night.

CD4: Democratic Rep. Greg Stanton won a fourth term in his East Valley district by defeating Republican Kelly Cooper for the second time in a row. The Associated Press called the race on Sunday afternoon.

CD5: Incumbent Republican Rep. Andy Biggs cruised to his fifth term in this conservative East Valley district. The Associated Press called his win over Democrat Katrina Schaffner on Wednesday afternoon, less than 24 hours after the polls closed on Election Day.

CD7: Rep. Raúl Grijalva, Arizona’s longest tenured congressman, easily won his 12th and final term in this heavily Democratic southern Arizona district. The Associated Press called Grijalva’s win soon over Republican Daniel Butierez Sr. after the early results were reported on Election Day.

CD8: Republican Abe Hamadeh, who fell short in his bid to become Arizona attorney general in 2022, is heading to Congress to succeed Rep. Debbie Lesko in this conservative West Valley district. The Associated Press called the race for Hamadeh over Democrat Gregory Whitten about 24 hours after the polls closed on Nov. 5.

CD9: Republican Rep. Paul Gosar easily beat Democrat Quacy Smith to win his eighth term in a district that spans western Arizona. The Associated Press called the race less than an hour after the polls closed on Election Day.
