UPDATE (8:13 EST): Arizona's Maricopa County relasing results now - it's on CNN

https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/election-results-congress-senate-house-11-10-2022/index.html?tab=ArizonaMaricopa County — the most populous county in Arizona — said it will release more election results at 10 p.m. ET tonight.
County officials are holding a news conference at 6 p,m. ET, but results are not expected to be released then.
Why is the vote count taking so long? The biggest reason for the delay is the way that each state handles the ballots outside of those cast at polling places on Election Day, including both early votes and mail-in ballots.
In Arizona, there are still roughly 600,000 ballots to be counted. The majority of those, about 400,000 ballots, are in Maricopa County.
Of those ballots, about 290,000 were dropped off at vote centers on Election Day, Bill Gates, the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors chairman, said on CNN Thursday. Those ballots have to be processed before they can be counted, leading to a lag time in tabulating.
In addition, Maricopa County has about 17,000 ballots that were attempted to be counted on Election Day but were not read by the tabulator because of a printer error, and those ballots still need to be counted, too.

sending positive vibes that these votes will land like those on Wednesday night - that is, the majority go to Mark Kelly and Katie Hobbs.
