This Tuesday is the special election in Arizona's 8th Congressional District to replace Trent Franks, who resigned in December amidst allegations of sexual harassment. 

The race has garnered national attention over the last few months.

Republican Debbie Lesko and Democrat Dr. Hiral Tipirneni are contending for the West Valley seat, which has historically been heavily Republican. However, Democrats are hoping to make headway.

Joining The Show to about the election and how it’s going as the votes are being cast is Maricopa County Recorder Adrian Fontes.
