Summary

Unlike states like Florida and Colorado, it takes Arizona anywhere from days to almost weeks to find out the results of the election. In the last midterm election, the results of the governor's race were announced six days after Election Day. Cable news famously called Arizona for Joe Biden on election night in 2020, but that contest would stay in headlines for months to come after a ballot recount. So far, 1 million early ballots have been received in Maricopa County alone. But early voting won't speed the process up. This week on Election Dissection, an elections series of The Gaggle podcast by The Arizona Republic and azcentral.com hosts Mary Jo Pitzl and Sasha Hupka are joined by data reporter at the Republic Sahana Jayaraman. Together they discuss a new tool to gather result data and explain why it takes so long to find out who won in Arizona. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
