Summary: the Maricopa County Clerk, the person who runs elections among other things, lost his primary reelection. While a Republican he was a defender of the legitimacy of the 2020 election. His winning opponent, on the other hand, has been an election denier.
- This primary though they didn't actually win to be in charge of the selections have they?
  
  Correct. The current guy who lost will remain until the final election where his replacement will be voted upon.
