Republican Rep. Juan Ciscomani won reelection to a U.S. House seat representing Arizona on Wednesday. The first-term Republican won a rematch against Democrat Kirsten Engel, whom Ciscomani narrowly defeated in the 2022 midterms.

Boosted in part by two pivotal Arizona races, Republicans have won a majority in the U.S. House of Representatives, helping to cement total GOP control over the federal government’s elected bodies.

Arizona's 1st Congressional District was one of the tightest House races in the country in 2022, and was expected to be another close race in 2024.

Ruben Gallego is on course to become Arizona's first Latino U.S. senator. Congress returns to work on Tuesday against the backdrop of President-elect Donald Trump's transition to a second term. Forecasters are warning that there is a high risk of a New Jersey wildfire continuing to spread further Tuesday amid strong winds and low humidity levels.

Election denialism is faltering after Republican Donald Trump's political comeback. But voting conspiracies are far from dead in swing state Arizona.
