Is that close enough to be runoff territory?

No there is no runoff, this is the Republican Primary to face the Democrat Katie Hobbs in November. Pinal County, Yavapai County, and Pima County have a decent amount of in person votes left to count so Lake should be able to stretch her lead out a bit, still some vote out in the rural counties as well. Going to come down to Maricopa County and the early vote that was dropped off in person.
Richard Baris called the race for Kari Lake.

I know it's the GOP primary, I'm just wondering if it's close enough they'll have a second primary runoff between Lake and Robson. I don't know if the AZ GOP has a mechanism for that or not, or if whatever the final count is tonight will be it, regardless of how close.

This is the final count, unless one of the candidates gets a recount, or there is an automatic recount because the race is within .1%

The rest of the vote out in Maricopa is apparently people who filled out their ballots and dropped them off on ED. Baris has stated this is a pro-Lake group.

Which makes sense. Bypass waiting in line while just giving the ballot to a drop box. Especially if you were a Trump Republican who thinks that voting in such high numbers on Election day to beat any potential possible fraud is the only way to win.

Edit: as of 2:35, Pinal County, the giga shitshow from earlier, has flipped towards Lake. Lake now leads by ~4,600.
