Republican Martha McSally has conceded the race to
represent Arizona's second Congressional District in
Congress to U.S. Rep. Ron Barber.

McSally, a former Air Force pilot, held a news conference
this afternoon to announce she was admitting defeat in
the extremely tight race, where since election day the
two have been running neck and neck. Both were invited
to an orientation session for new members of Congress last week.

McSally said she called Barber to congratulate him today.
She described the race as an “amazing journey.”
