Donald Trump has won the swing state of Arizona, securing the state’s 11 Electoral College votes, according to a projection from Decision Desk HQ.
With 73% of the vote in, Trump defeated Vice President Kamala Harris 52.1% to 47%.
The call in Arizona completes Trump’s total sweep of the seven battleground states — Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nevada, and Arizona — and brings Trump’s total Electoral College vote count to 312.
In 2020, President Joe Biden narrowly won Arizona, helping him top former President Donald Trump in the race.
The threshold for triggering an automatic recount in the state was increased through legislation in 2022 from 0.1 percentage points to 0.5 percentage points.
Polls leading up to the election showed a tight race between the candidates with Trump leading Vice President Kamala Harris in the RealClearPolitics average by 2.8 points headed into Election Day.
