From the Republic, reporting that Tom Horne how has a 373-vote lead over Andrew Thomas, enough to avoid a recount:

First, Thomas delivered an all-but-victory speech at Republican Party headquarters, while a dejected Horne told TV crews that low turnout had likely cost him the election.

Then Horne roared back, erasing a deficit of some 9,000 votes as ballots were counted in Pima County and elsewhere. Thomas' spokesman, Jason Rose, appeared to concede the race to Horne in a series of tweets, urging Republicans to come together behind their new standard bearer.

Wednesday morning, in a statement released through Rose, Thomas appeared to pedal back from those words.

“The time for debating and tough words in the Republican primary is over,” Thomas said. “The time for vote counting is upon us. I appreciated Tom Horne’s words earlier in the campaign and just last night when things were not looking his way that he would support me were I to be the nominee. Likewise, if Tom prevails I don’t want there to be any doubt that I will support him against the Democrat. Let’s see where the vote counting takes us.”
