That's true.
Traditionally Arizona may have been the reddest state of all.
Obama lost there both times. Trump of course won in 2016.
The only Dem to win since 1948 and before 2020 was Bill Clinton against the weak candidate Bob Dole in 1996 where it was very close and where Ross Perot siphoned off GOP support.
Biden allegedly won in 2020 -- 49.36% to 49.06%. I kind of don't buy it.
The demographic of Arizona has changed significantly in just the last 5 years. A ton a Cali libs have moved there and the population of Arizona is so small that the transients are statistically significant.
Also, as I pointed out earlier and Unkle ignored: Biden won by 5 MILLION votes while Trump only won TX by 600K votes. On that basis alone, any "purple" state is clearly in play.
And AZ is NOT red on the level of TN, AL, OK, etc
