Kari Lake has cut into Ruben Gallego's early lead with many votes still to be counted. Both candidates are staying mostly silent.

Lake and Gallego await results in a close Arizona Senate race, with early leads and uncounted votes keeping the outcome uncertain.

Rep. Ruben Gallego and Kari Lake are duking it out for the open Senate seat in Arizona after Sen. Kyrsten Sinema opted not to seek reelection.

Election Day was yesterday in Arizona, and voters had a chance to fill one seat in the race for the state's Senate seat. Currently held by independent Kyrsten Sinema, the seat is a six-year term that overlaps current Senator Mark Kelly.

Tempe veteran Mark Rodriguez-Jacobsen was thrilled and surprised to show up to cast a vote for Senate hopeful Ruben Gallego, only to come face-to-face with Gallego at his polling location. “Yes, yes,

If you’re in line at 7 p.m. you can vote no matter how long the line goes,” Mayor Kate Gallego told ABC15 at a polling site on Election Day and shared a message to voters on the ‘final’ Arizona results.

Ruben Gallego held to a thinner lead over Kari Lake as polling showed a choppier race in the final week of the campaign.
