In Arizona's 9th Congressional District, incumbent Republican Paul Gosar was declared the winner in his race to return to Congress.

Gosar defeated Democrat Quacy Smith Tuesday. The Associated Press called the race at 8:39 p.m.

Gosar has had solid support in his district since first elected in 2010. Members of his family openly supported his opponent in the last two election cycles.
