After four days of counting, the CNN and NBC channels declared Donald Trump the winner of this southwestern state, traditionally Republican but which had narrowly swung in 2020 in favor of Joe Biden.
The Republican has already been declared the winner in six other key states: Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan and Nevada.
The Republican garnered 312 electoral votes against 226 for Kamala Harris, the majority being set at 270. The 11 electoral votes won in Arizona do not change the outcome of the election but confirm the extent of Donald Trump’s victory against the Democrat Kamala Harris.
A shock for the Democrats
Donald Trump, who will be inaugurated on January 20, also leads Kamala Harris by almost four million votes in the popular vote, a shock for Democrats pushed into difficult introspection.
He will be able to rely on the Senate, which the Republicans took back from the Democrats, and possibly on the House of Representatives, where his party is on track to retain the majority.
