President-elect Donald Trump has been projected to win Arizona, securing victories in all seven key battleground states: Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nevada, and Arizona, bringing his Electoral College count to 312 votes. This substantial win underscores the strength of his campaign, especially after polling had shown a tight race against Kamala Harris, with Trump leading by an average of 2.8 points prior to Election Day.
In Arizona, spending reached unprecedented levels, with $487 million directed toward political campaigns in 2024, compared to $427 million in 2020.
