Networks Confirm Biden Won Arizona

Last night, the rest of the news networks declared Joe Biden the winner of Arizona, joining Fox News and the Associated Press which called the race on Election Night.

The Arizona Mirror notes a recount is highly unlikely: “Arizona law sets specific criteria that must be met for election recounts, setting a deliberately high standard that makes it nearly impossible to trigger. For races with more than 25,000 ballots — like the presidential contest — the candidates have to be separated by just 200 or fewer votes. Among the almost 3.4 million ballots cast this year, President-elect Joe Biden has a lead of more than 14,000 votes in Arizona.”

As the updated electoral map shows, Arizona gives Biden 270 electoral votes, without either Pennsylvania or Georgia, so it’s increasingly unlikely Donald Trump’s many lawsuits will be able to change the outcome.
