Results for gubernatorial races across the nation rolled in Tuesday night — dashing some long-shot hopes for Republicans in states like New York and Michigan. Meanwhile, other key gubernatorial races, such as in Arizona, are still too close to call as of Wednesday morning.
Here&#8217;s what you need to know.
Arizona
Democrat candidate Katie Hobbs and Republican candidate Kari Lake are still battling it out in Arizona.
Hobbs is leading Lake 52.25% to 47.75%, with about 66% of the vote counted, according to Decision Desk HQ polling from early Wednesday morning.

Notably, some 60 different voting centers experienced <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/maricopa-county-held-emergency-hearing-to-extend-voting-hours-judge-denies-request" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ballot printing issues</a> in Maricopa County. A judge ruled against extending voting hours Tuesday despite the problems.
“The widespread issues – in an election administered by Democrat Secretary of State Katie Hobbs – are completely unacceptable, especially as Republicans flock to the polls to vote in person on Election Day,” RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel shared in a tweet Tuesday. “We have dozens of attorneys and thousands of volunteers working to solve this issue and ensure that Arizona voters have the chance to make their voices heard.”
New Mexico 
Democratic incumbent Michelle Lujan Grisham is edging out Republican challenger Mark Ronchetti in New Mexico&#8217;s gubernatorial election 51.8% to 45.7%, with 95% of the vote counted, according to a projection at Decision Desk HQ, which has yet to call the race.

Oregon
