Adelita Grijalva, daughter of the late Congressman Raúl Grijalva, won Tuesday's Democratic primary in the special election to replace her father, and will advance to this fall’s general election.

Adelita Grijalva’s landslide win over Deja Foxx shows that real-world connections still matter more than social media influence in politics.

An Arizona special election primary Tuesday to replace the late Rep. Raúl Grijalva is the latest flare-up of the Democratic Party’s clashes over age and experience.

Calls for generational change and dissatisfaction with the status quo have been at the center of campaigns by younger candidates. While that has lifted some to victory, others have fallen short.

Mr. Hogg compared Ms. Foxx’s late surge in support to the shocking success of a 33-year-old democratic socialist, Zohran Mamdani, who last month overtook Governor Cuomo, the frontrunner candidate, to win the Democratic nomination for New York City mayor.
