Arizona Exit Poll Today November 8 2016

Arizona has been branded as a "swing state" for this election, this due to a number of polls showing a closer race than unusual here.

Mitt Romeny won the state for the republicans by a solid 9 points in 2012, in fact the state has only voted democrat once in the last 60 years of presidential elections (for Bill Clinton in 1996).

Despite this Trump is still favorite to win the state and he really needs to, a valuable 11 electoral votes are available here and Trump`s path to victory is more complex than Clintons.

A short while after the polls close, vote counting will begin and we will have the results as soon as they are available.

Poll Trump vs Clinton Arizona October 2016 Who is Winning

Arizona is considered a solidly republican state, in fact the democrats have only won one presidential election here since 1948. This said the polls are currently indicating quite a close race.

Trump has the advantage there is no doubt about that and due to history, it would be safe to assume that "The Donald" as his supporters know him, will triumph here this year.

However according to the RealClearPolitics average between August 17- September 8 Trump has an advantage of 1.6%.

Donald Trump   41.6%
Hillary Clinton   40.0%

It remains to be seen what will happen on election day, however this advantage is less than the margin of victory of McCain in 2008 (+8.5) and Romney in 2012 (+9.1).  

Donald Trump Immigration Comments September 2016

Donald Trump continues to create controversy in the United States and around the world for his hard line stance on illegal immigration in the world`s most powerful nation.

Trump surprised many with a brief visit to Mexico this week to meet with the president of that country, Enrique Peña Nieto, he seemed to strike somewhat of a conciliatory tone during the press conference there before returning to the US and giving a tough speech on immigration that very evening in Arizona.

Trump promised to hire more border enforcement agents and that the wall he plans to build would be complete with towers and above and below ground sensors.

The republican candidate insisted that his first priority as president would be to track down and deport illegal immigrants who have committed crimes within the country, stating that "within the first hour" of his presidency they would be gone.

Arizona goes to the polls on March 22 and as a winner-take-all state, it is of vital importance.

Given the state of play in the republican race, the 58 delegates available in Arizona could go a long way towards deciding the final outcome.

Often at this stage of a campaign most of the republican establishment figures will have thrown their support behind one candidate in particular and the outcome will be a forgone conclusion. This time however, given that the favorite and current frontrunner, businessman Donald Trump is such a polarizing candidate, many in the party are actually plotting in order to deny him the nomination.

The RealClearPolitics average of polls indicates the following percentages in Arizona

Donald Trump   34%
Ted Cruz          21%
John Kasich     12.5%

Should these numbers materialize on the day of the election then Trump will make off with the 58 delegates and be one step closer to the 1,237 that he requires in order to secure the nomination outright. We will have to wait and see.

The Republican race to become the party`s nominee for the presidential elections in 2016 is hotting up. It would now appear that there are only two possible outcomes to the primaries, that Trump reaches the 1,237 he requires and becomes the party`s nominee, or he doesn`t and in that case a contested convention awaits.

Here we will leave you with the latest polls in Arizona and Utah, the next states to vote.

Predictions Republican Primary Arizona 2016 Trump, Cruz, Kasich

The people of Arizona will go to the polls on March 22 in the Republican Primary.

Often at this stage of the campaign most support has consolidated around one candidate in particular and it`s evident who the eventual nominee will be. However, this year the possibility of a contested convention looms large.

In fact there appear to be only two possible outcomes at this point, a Trump win (Meaning he obtains the 1,237 delegates in order to secure the nomination) or a contested convention in which in all likelihood Trump would be denied the nomination.

According to polling in Arizona Donald Trump has the upper hand and should win the state and thus secure the 58 delegates in the winner-takes-all format.
