Arizona‘s election results were slow to come in during last year’s election, but now Republican lawmakers in the state are aiming to reform the system to speed it up with some inspiration from the Sunshine State.

In Florida, election results for the 2024 election were quick, while Arizona results took significantly longer. The Associated Press called Florida for President-elect Donald Trump at 8:01 p.m. EST on election night, while Arizona was called for Trump four days later at 9:21 p.m. EST – being the last state called in the election despite it not being the closest race.
