Finally, enough votes have been counted that the AP has called the final state for Donald Trump. In the end, it wasn't even close. Trump won 52.6% to 46.4%. The polls consistently showed that Trump was far ahead in Arizona and he was. We had thought that pretend governor Kari Lake and the abortion initiative would pull him down, but we were wrong and the polls were right.
Trump ends with 312 electoral votes. That is six more than Biden's 306 in 2020. Is it a landslide? Hardly. Barack Obama got 365 and 332 in his two wins, respectively. And even those are nowhere near Ronald Reagan's totals of 489 and 525 in 1980 and 1984, respectively. That is what a landslide looks like. (V)
