But that has not stopped president from from coming out to address his supporters at the white house this has been one of the most divisive and unpredictable u. S. Elections in memory and even though trump initially trailed biden he quickly picked up Electoral College votes theres no clear winner yet we have just learned that arizona is going to joe biden lets cross over to rob reynolds in los angeles in california hes following the returns on the west coast and rob we were speaking 56 minutes ago about the importance of arizona and then moments later the flip happened tell us more. Yes and the important part is one of the important aspects is that this is a flip this is joe biden taking away a state that was won by President Trump in 2016 and its all the more remarkable because arizona has always been one of the most rock ribbed republican states in the union it is the home state of Barry Goldwater who considered the founder of the modern conservative movement although some of the dev
A very sad moment and we will win this and far as im concerned we already have. Im her terrier night we believe were on track to win this election.
