UPDATE in the ACSOSheriffs race shows incumbent Sheriff Ahern continues to trail challenger Yesenia Sanchez - a division commander at Santa Rita Jail. If Sanchez stays above 50% as ballots are still being processed, she'll become new sheriff
Sheriff Greg Ahern has held that office since 2007.
"You can never guess what a jury's going to do or what the voters are going to do," Ahern said Wednesday."We'll continue to do that because of the litigation we're in, and we're making a lot of positive changes at the jail," Ahern said. In a statement, Sanchez said in part, "Someone had to stand up and do something to bring accountability to the sheriff's office. The public demands it, and they deserve it. Voters have spoken." Civil rights attorney Pamela Price got more votes in the primary than Chief Assistant District Attorney Terry Wiley.
