Unofficial results show Graham, Ugenti-Rita elected to Scottsdale City Council

Unofficial results from the Maricopa County Elections Department show Barry Graham winning re-election and Michelle Ugenti-Rita winning a seat on the Scottsdale City Council in the Nov. 3 General Election.

Nearly 72% of Scottsdale’s registered voters participated in the election, which determined the final two seats on the City Council for the upcoming term.

The July 21 Primary Election determined one of the three City Council seats, with incumbent Solange Whitehead receiving enough votes to secure re-election. The two remaining seats were decided in the Nov. 3 General Election. 

“We appreciate the strong participation from Scottsdale voters and their engagement in this election,” said City Clerk Ben Lane. “Conducting an election involves extensive coordination and attention to detail to ensure the process is accurate, transparent and accessible. Thank you to our voters, election workers, city staff and Maricopa County partners for helping make this election possible.”

Graham, Ugenti-Rita and Whitehead will each begin their four-year terms on the Scottsdale City Council in January 2027.

Results remain unofficial until the Scottsdale City Council formally approves them through the election canvass.
