Reupping my story on today's Arizona special from earlier this summer -- Foxx entered the race as a long shot, but successfully harnessed new and social media to exceed expectations. Lack of independent polling has left some strategists wondering if she can pull off an upset win.

Adelita Grijalva is the front-runner to replace her father in today's special primary election, but she faces an unexpectedly competitive primary featuring a young social-media-savvy newcomer. wapo.st/3GI7h63

Some have compared AZ to NYC bc Grijalva/Cuomo share famous last names and face younger, online opponents. But they are v diff races & it's harder to make the antiestablishment, insurgent pitch against a progressive who hasn't held federal office (not to mention lack of scandal).
