Loren Jones has been re-elected with 4,912 votes. This will be his final term on the Assembly.

Michelle Bonnet Hale earns the most votes in District 2, which means she gets a full three-year term on the Assembly.

Wade Bryson earned the second most votes in District 2 with 2,274 votes. That race may be too close to call, as Garrett Schoenberger earned 2,152 votes, and there are still 2,500 remaining ballots left to be counted from absentee/questioned ballots and early voting. The runner-up in the District 2 race will get a one-year term on the Assembly.
