Republican Mark Lamb wins election to U.S. House in Arizona’s 5th Congressional District – WTOP News

Mark Lamb defeated Democrat Elizabeth Lee after a late ballot shift, giving Republicans another Arizona House seat by a narrow 3-point margin, officials said.

  • On Friday, the Associated Press declared Former Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb the winner of Arizona's CD5, securing 51.5% of the vote over Democrat Elizabeth Lee's 48.5%.
  • In the Republican-leaning district, Lee held a nearly five-percentage-point lead when Tuesday's results arrived, but Lamb reclaimed the lead overnight Wednesday and maintained it.
  • Despite allegations of sexual misconduct and abuse of power, President Trump reaffirmed his endorsement for Lamb, who campaigned on protecting Arizonans' freedoms and the southern border.
  • Separately, the Associated Press projected Abe Hamadeh won Arizona's CD8, leading 51.3% to 48.7% and becoming the first Arab-American elected to Congress from Arizona.
  • Republicans are expected to hold at least three congressional seats from Arizona following projected defeats for other candidates, down from six seats the party held entering the 2026 election.
