Trump Takes AZ, Completes Sweep Of All Swing States; CNN Says Victory Was So Massive He “Broke History”<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

President-elect Donald Trump has won Arizona, completing a sweep of all seven battleground in the 2024 election.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Associated Press called the race at 9:21 p.m. ET on Nov. 9. With this win, Trump\u2019s total electoral college count moves to 312 to Vice President Kamala Harris\u2019s 226.<\/p>\n

Trump was projected to win the election on the morning of Nov. 6. Harris conceded the race later the same day.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

As The Epoch Times’ John Haughey reports,<\/em><\/a> Trump\u2019s Arizona victory follows candidate Joe Biden\u2019s upset win in the state in 2020, a 0.3-percent squeaker that marked the first time since Bill Clinton\u2019s 1996 win that The Grand Canyon State had voted for a Democratic presidential candidate. In 2016, Trump won Arizona by 3.5 percentage points.<\/p>\n

Polls presaged the former president\u2019s Arizona win. The FiveThirtyEight poll aggregate<\/a> had Trump leading by 2.2 percentage points on Nov. 4.<\/p>\n

Maricopa County, where 62 percent of the state\u2019s 7.4 million residents, and more than half its 4.367 million voters, live, proved pivotal. Trump won the Phoenix-area vote CC to CC percent, according to the Maricopa County Elections Department.<\/p>\n

Trump fared better in the key county than in 2016 when he won it with less than 48 percent and in 2020 when he lost it with 47.65 percent, becoming the first GOP presidential candidate to lose Maricopa County in 72 years.<\/p>\n

As in Nevada, winning the Latino vote drives Arizona campaigns, especially in Maricopa County where one-third of voters are Hispanic, compared to less than 19 percent nationally.<\/p>\n

While many media declared Trump the winner of Arizona\u2019s 11 Electoral College votes in the preceding days, the AP withheld doing so until all mail-in ballots had been counted. Reported results had not changed much for more than a day by late-afternoon Nov. 8.<\/p>\n

On Nov. 7, the Arizona Secretary of State\u2019s office added tens of thousands of votes to the tally, but said there were hundreds of thousands of ballots left to count, including nearly 500,000 in Maricopa County. Therefore, the presidential race and the U.S. Senate contest between Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) and Kari Lake remained too close to call by late afternoon Nov. 8.<\/p>\n

At 5 p.m. EST\u20142 p.m. PST\u2014on Nov. 8, those numbers, largely frozen for more than a day, had Trump with 1.4 million votes, 52.5 percent of the total tally, to Harris\u2019s 1.2 million votes, or 46.5 percent.<\/p>\n

Despite the president-elect\u2019s 161,000 vote lead, a significant 6 percentage point advantage, since most Arizona voters cast ballots by mail, and counting typically takes days. the AP withheld the call until it was mathematically impossible for Harris to overcome Trump\u2019s lead.<\/p>\n

Trump also dominated Harris in the popular vote with the vice president receiving around 10 million less votes than Biden did in 2020…<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Additionally, as Modernity.news’ Steve Watson reports<\/em><\/a>, CNN\u2019s data analyst Harry Enten did a deep dive into the gains president Trump made with specific demographics in the election, highlighting how crushing they were for Democrats.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The numbers are truly astounding, and incredibly bad for the party of \u2018joy.\u2019<\/p>\n

Enter pointed out that Trump made the greatest improvements over a previous presidential election performance from the same party since 1992.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen was the last time a party gained in so many different places?\u201d<\/strong><\/em> Enten asked, explaining that \u201cYou have to go all the way to back to 1992 when Bill Clinton improved on Michael Dukakis\u2019 performance in 49 states, plus the District of Columbia.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cDonald Trump\u2019s performance on Tuesday was the best for a Republican presidential candidate in exit poll history,\u201d Enten further urged, adding \u201cHe literally goes all the way back through history and breaks history.\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Enten pointed to how Trump improved his party\u2019s election performance in 49 states and Washington, D.C. over the 2020 election, with Washington state the single one where he didn\u2019t do better.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know, I think the breadth of the improvement that Donald Trump had \u2013 Holy Toledo!\u201d <\/strong><\/em>Enten declared.<\/p>\n

Trump’s mandate:<\/p>\n

1. More states (49 + DC) swung in his direction vs. last election than anyone since 1992.
\n2. Best GOP showing w\/ age 18-29 in 20 yrs, Black voters in 48 yrs, Hispanics in 52+ yrs.
\n3. Coattails: best GOP showing in House popular vote in prez year since 1928. pic.twitter.com\/xDEjHVJFAm<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 (((Harry Enten))) (@ForecasterEnten) November 8, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n

Trump has the biggest mandate imaginable.<\/p>\n

If there was ever a mandate, this looks like it. Trump\u2019s coalition is clearly reshaping the political map.<\/p>\n

\u2014 Marie Jett (@Marie_Jett1) November 8, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n

The party of joy failed to instil anyone with any.<\/p>\n

The political landscape has completely changed forever.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
