Posted

 Preliminary results for the Maricopa County Attorney election have been posted, with Rachel Mitchell leading at 9:13 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 6, with 784,380 votes. 

The candidates are competing for the office of County Attorney, a key position responsible for representing Maricopa County in legal matters and providing counsel to county officers and school districts. 

The candidates are:

  • Rachel Mitchell: The Republican candidate, holding 54.62% of the vote, who was appointed County Attorney in 2022 to fill the remainder of Allister Adel’s term. Mitchell has served in the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office since 1992, including a decade-long tenure overseeing the sex-crimes division.
  • Tamika Wooten: the Democrat candidate, holding 45.38% of the vote, is a practicing attorney with over 30 years of experience. Wooten has worked as a prosecutor, a defense attorney, and a judge pro tem in several Maricopa County cities.

 The winner will serve a four-year term as Maricopa County Attorney, a role that includes representing the county in legal matters and providing legal counsel to county departments and school districts. 

As the results continue to come in, the race remains uncalled, with fluctuations in vote counts that will be finalized in the coming days. The official results will be confirmed once all votes are tallied and verified.
