Biden projected to win Arizona, flipping a state Trump won in 2016
Democratic nominee Joe Biden is projected to win Arizona, Fox News and The Associated Press project.
Pre-election polls suggested a tight race for the southwestern state, a potentially key swing state that President Trump had won in 2016. Democratic Senate candidate Mark Kelly was also projected to beat incumbent Arizona Sen. Martha McSally (R), aiding Democrats' attempts to flip the Senate.
The outcomes in several other swing states' fates still remain uncertain as of early Wednesday morning, with Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin all potentially pivotal in the race for the White House.
