Joe Biden
Democratic

The 2020 United States presidential election in Arizona was held on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, as part of the 2020 United States presidential election, in which all 50 states and the District of Columbia participated.[2] Arizona voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote, pitting the Republican Party's nominee, incumbent President Donald Trump, and running mate Vice President Mike Pence against Democratic Party nominee, former Vice President Joe Biden, and his running mate California Senator Kamala Harris. Arizona has 11 electoral votes in the Electoral College.[3]

Trump had carried the state in 2016 by 3.5%, and it was considered a vital battleground in this election. Polls of the state throughout the campaign generally showed a Biden lead, albeit by a slender margin. Prior to election day, 11 of the 16 news organizations considered that Arizona was leaning towards Biden; the other five considered it a toss-up. Biden ultimately won the state by a narrow 0.31% margin over Trump, marking the first time since 1996, and only the second time since 1948, that a Democratic presidential nominee won Arizona. Arizona was the second closest state in 2020, the only closer state being Georgia.

Per exit polls by the Associated Press, Biden won 59% of Latino voters, including 65% of Latinos of Mexican heritage.[4] He won 58% of independents and was even able to notch 9% of Republicans,[4] allowing Biden to narrowly flip Maricopa County and become the first Democrat since Harry S. Truman in 1948 to do so. Additionally, Biden performed relatively well for a Democratic candidate among the state's Mormon voters.[5] Biden had touted his endorsement from Cindy McCain and leaned into his friendship with the late Senator John McCain in advertising.[6]

Primary elections

Canceled Republican primary

On September 9, 2019, the Arizona Republican Party became one of several state GOP parties to officially cancel their respective primaries and caucuses.[7] Donald Trump's re-election campaign and GOP officials have cited the fact that Republicans canceled several state primaries when George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush sought a second term in 1992 and 2004, respectively; and Democrats scrapped some of their primaries when Bill Clinton and Barack Obama were seeking reelection in 1996 and 2012, respectively.[8][9] At the Arizona State Republican Convention in May 2020, the state party formally bound all 57 of its national pledged delegates to Trump.[10]

Democratic primary

The Arizona Democratic primary took place on March 17, 2020. Former Vice President Joe Biden defeated Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and Hawaii Representative Tulsi Gabbard.

General election

Campaign

Arizona was a heavily contested state throughout the election. Once a reliably Republican state, it has trended more Democratic in recent years, with Trump winning it by just 3.5% in the 2016 United States presidential election in Arizona, a major decrease from Mitt Romney's 9.03% margin in the 2012 United States presidential election in Arizona. Both candidates spent massive amounts of money on ads, however Biden outspent Trump 2-1. [17]

Trump visited Arizona significantly more then his opponent, holding 4 rallies in just one week, compared to Biden, who only visited the state once. [18] [19] Biden favored small, masked gathering to limit the spread of COVID-19, whereas Trump favored large rallies with thousands of people in attendance, oftentimes without masks. [20]

At his rallies, Trump campaigned with the Republican Governor of Arizona, Doug Ducey, as well as Republican Senator Martha McSally, in a bid to help her win reelection against Democrat Mark Kelly in the 2020 United States Senate special election in Arizona. Ducey suffered from low approval ratings due to his handling of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and was booed at a Trump rally in Tucson, with Trump supporters shouting "open up and open our state".[21]

Controversies

Early call

In one of the more controversial stories of the election, Fox News called Arizona for Biden at 11:20 p.m. EST on November 3, election day, with 73% of projected vote counted.[39] The Associated Press did so at 2:50 a.m. EST on November 4, The network received push-back from the Trump campaign and no other network called Arizona on election night.[40][41][42][43][44] On November 11, Decision Desk HQ, along with several other outlets, projected that Biden would carry the state.[45] On November 12, ABC News, NBC News, CNN and The New York Times all projected Biden to carry the state shortly after 11 PM Eastern.[46][47][48]

Overvotes lawsuit

The Trump campaign, the Republican National Committee and the Arizona Republican Party filed a lawsuit that alleges that "overvotes" were "incorrectly rejected". A representative for Maricopa County stated that only "180 potential overvotes" are at stake in the case.[49] The Trump campaign requested that their evidence be kept secret from the public, but the judge refused to allow the secrecy.[50] The Trump campaign also stated that they had video footage from within a polling area; however, such footage would be illegal if taken within 75 feet of a polling area with voters present.[50] On November 10, 2020, Associate Presiding Civil Judge Daniel Kiley accepted a request from Snell & Wilmer, the law firm which was representing the Trump campaign and its allies, to withdraw from the Arizona lawsuit.[51][52] On November 11, 2020, Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich rejected Trump's voter fraud claim during an interview with Fox Business and stated that Biden would win the state of Arizona.[53][54] On November 13, the Trump campaign dropped their lawsuit, after it became evident that the number of votes potentially to be contested would not overcome Biden's margin of victory in the state.[55]

Analysis

Biden became the first Democrat to win Arizona since Bill Clinton's victory in the 1996 United States presidential election, and only the second time since 1948. He is also the first Democrat to win Maricopa County, home to the state capital of Phoenix, since Harry Truman in 1948,[56] winning it by a margin of 2.2%, or 45,109 votes.[57] Maricopa County is by far the largest county in Arizona; it is home to over 60 percent of Arizona's population. Any chance Biden had of carrying the state depended on doing reasonably well in Maricopa; Clinton won Arizona mainly by holding his deficit in Maricopa to single digits. Ultimately, Biden's lead in Maricopa was over four times his statewide margin of 10,457 votes. Biden also became the first Democrat to break 47% of the vote since Lyndon B. Johnson did so in 1964.

Some Republicans, such as U.S. Representative from Florida Matt Gaetz, have come to attribute Trump's loss to the unpopularity of Governor Doug Ducey and Senator Martha McSally, who lost to Democrat Mark Kelly by a larger margin of 78,806 votes.[58] A large part of the reason as to why Biden won the state, however, can be attributed to how he leaned into his friendship with the late Senator John McCain in advertising. He also received an endorsement from McCain's widowed wife, Cindy McCain.[59] An increase in indigenous voting,[60] changing demographics and an increasing Hispanic population and turnout also contributed to Biden's very narrow victory.[61][62][63] On November 24, 2020, Governor Doug Ducey acknowledged that Biden won the state.[64]
