What is the Special Election on July 15th and why is it important?
On March 13, 2025, longtime Arizona Congressman Raúl M. Grijalva passed away. Congressman Grijalva (DEM) was elected at the 2024 general election to serve Arizona’s 7th congressional district for a term of two years.
Arizona Revised Statutes § 16-222 requires a special election be held to fill the vacancy. Governor Hobbs issued a call for special primary election, to be held on Jul 15, 2025 and a special general election, to be held on Sep 23, 2025. The candidate that wins the general election will fill the CD7 seat for the remainder of the term (expires January 2027).
CD7 comprises the following counties: Cochise, Maricopa, Pima, Pinal, Santa Cruz, and Yuma. Voters can verify their congressional district here.
