Voting Underway in Arizona CD7 Special Primary Election

A special primary election is being held on July 15, 2025, in Arizona's Congressional District 7 to fill the vacancy left by the death of longtime U.S. Rep. Raúl Grijalva in March. Voting is open from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. at 58 voting centers across Pima County, with results expected to be posted after 8 p.m. Registered Democrats, Republicans, and Independents (who can choose a party ballot at the polls) are eligible to participate, and proper ID is required. Five Democratic candidates, including Adelita Grijalva, Raúl Grijalva’s daughter, and three Republicans are vying for the seat. The district has historically favored Democrats, who make up about 40% of voters, making the Democratic nominee the favorite for the September 23 general election. Voters can track turnout, wait times, and live ballot processing online, and all voting equipment has passed required accuracy tests.
