Neck and neck: Poll from a key state
The stakes are high. Arizona is one of the key states—a victory there could secure as many as 11 electoral votes.
In 2020, Joe Biden won there by 0.2 percentage points. It was the first Democratic win in the state in a presidential election since Bill Clinton's time.
The elections in the United States will take place on Tuesday, November 5.
