Former President Donald Trump is polling behind President Joe Biden in Arizona for the first time in six months.
According to a poll by Data Orbital released on Tuesday, Biden would garner 38.8 percent of the vote share, while Trump would get 38.1 percent if an election were held at the time of sampling. While this lead is incredibly small, and within the poll's margin error, it represents the first time Biden has taken the lead in an Arizona state poll since November, according to analysis by polling aggregator FiveThirtyEight.
For instance, an April Echelon Insights survey of 2,401 registered voters, conducted for the conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation, showed that Trump was ahead of Biden in Arizona by 51 percent to 45 percent.
In March, the former president and the incumbent won enough primary races to secure, respectively, the Republican and Democratic nominations in the 2024 presidential election. Polls have so far shown that the 2020 rematch will be tight as the pair are statistically tied in most surveys or holding only marginal leads.
Arizona has historically leaned towards Republicans in presidential election, backing the GOP candidate in six of the last eight trips to the ballot box, but it backed Biden in 2020 and the Democratic party in several statewide races in 2022. It's expected to be a close race in November.
