The 2024 contest paired Republican incumbent David Schweikert with Amish Shah. Shah is running again in 2026, now against a different Republican nominee, Jay Feely, in an open-seat election.
District electoral history
The prior result provides a useful baseline for the district, but the incumbent, campaign environment and voter turnout conditions have changed.
Earlier results may reflect different candidates and, across redistricting cycles, different geographic boundaries. The historical vote is not a prediction.

Polling record: what is verifiable?
A verified, standardized series of recent district polls has not yet been included in our dataset. We therefore do not display a fabricated district polling average.
We have not reviewed enough comparable recent public district surveys to publish an original average. A missing value is preferable to a fabricated number.
For current candidate filings and published surveys, consult the race source. We will add actual toplines only when fieldwork dates, candidate matchup and source can be verified.
What to verify as voting approaches
- New district-level polls: sample, population, sponsor, and exact field dates.
- Official ballot and polling-place rules from the state or local election authority.
- Candidate disclosures and campaign claims against source documents.
- Election-night county returns and outstanding ballots; do not confuse a media call with certification.
