Leading Off

Maricopa County, AZ Sheriff: With 387,000 votes tabulated from Tuesday's Republican primary, former Chief Deputy Sheriff Jerry Sheridan leads his old boss, the disgraced ex-Sheriff Joe Arpaio, 37-36—a margin of 572 votes. The winner will face Democratic incumbent Paul Penzone, who denied Arpaio a seventh term as the top lawman of Arizona's largest county four years ago, in November.

The Arizona Republic reported Wednesday that there are close to 100,000 ballots left to be tabulated countywide, though it's not clear how many of them were cast in the GOP primary.
