The 2020 United States presidential election in Arizona was held on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, as part of the 2020 United States presidential election.[1] Arizona voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College and the popular vote. Former Vice President Joe Biden and his running mate, junior U.S. Senator Kamala Harris won over 11 electoral votes in the electoral college.
