凤凰城市议会选举计票三日 第二选区埃文斯领先、第四选区赫尔墨斯大幅领先
凤凰城市议会选举计票进入第三天，11月5日更新的非官方结果显示，第二选区与第四选区均可能进入决选：第二选区候选人马特·埃文斯（Matt Evans）保持领先，第四选区的埃德·赫尔墨斯（Ed Hermes）则大比分领先。
第二选区是接替任期届满的市议员吉姆·沃林（Jim Waring）的改选，埃文斯的两名对手中，朱莉·里德（Julie Read）以微弱优势领先丹尼·马扎（Danny Mazza），位居第二。若无人得票超过50%，得票前两名将于明年3月9日进行决选。
另外两个改选选区中，第六选区与第八选区的现任议员亦以较大优势领先。亚利桑那州允许选民在选举日当天把提前选票送至投票站，此类选票须经核验后计入，结果仍为非官方，须待全部选票统计并认证。（来源：马里科帕县选举部门）
Phoenix council count continues: Evans leads District 2, Hermes dominates District 4, runoffs likely
Ballot counting in Phoenix's City Council elections entered its third day, and unofficial results updated on November 5 pointed to likely runoffs in two districts: Matt Evans held his lead in District 2, while Ed Hermes dominated in District 4.
District 2 is the race to succeed term-limited Councilman Jim Waring. Of Evans's two opponents, Julie Read held a narrow lead over Danny Mazza for second place. If no candidate exceeds 50% of the vote, the top two finishers will meet in a runoff on March 9.
Incumbents in the other two contested districts, 6 and 8, also led by wide margins. Arizona allows voters to drop off early ballots at the polls on Election Day; those ballots must be processed and verified before tallying, and results remain unofficial until all ballots are counted and certified.
