Arizona 2024 live election results: Trump projected to win, Gallego beats Lake in Senate race

President-elect Donald Trump is the projected winner in Arizona, ABC News reports.

In 2020, President Joe Biden flipped the state and edged out former President Donald Trump by 0.3 percentage points. Polling indicated another tight race between Vice President Kamala Harris and Trump in the state.

With his win, Trump took Arizona's 11 electoral votes.

In the Arizona Senate race, where the margins were not expected to be nearly as close as they were, ABC News reports that Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego is projected to defeat Republican Kari Lake.

State significance

Trump won the state in 2016 by roughly 4 percentage points over Democrat Hillary Clinton. The state had gone red since 2000 but in 2020, Biden flipped the state blue by roughly 10,000 votes.

Arizona was an epicenter for false claims of election fraud in 2020. Challenges to the results ensued for a year, but audits and reviews only confirmed Biden's win and found no anomalies or election integrity issues.

Among the most vocal election deniers was Lake, who was a gubernatorial candidate in 2022 and was the Republican nominee for Senate.

Arizonans approved a ballot measure to enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution, ABC News projects. It came after a statewide fight to repeal a 1864 abortion ban that went into effect after the fall of Roe v. Wade. Arizona law allows abortions until 15 weeks.
