These were Maricopa’s most pro-Trump and pro-Harris neighborhoods

Maricopa is about as evenly divided as national polls and mainstream news outlets promised the presidential election would be when it came to support for President-elect Donald J. Trump or Vice President Kamala Harris.

Of the dozen election precincts in Maricopa proper, six each went to Harris and Trump, according to the latest 12:30 p.m. tabulations from Pinal County Elections.

Harris, who at 2 p.m. will give her concession speech at Howard University after calling and congratulating Trump on his mystifying comeback victory, was the preferred candidate in the Maricopa, Tortosa, Desert Cedars, Senita, Rancho El Dorado and Alterra North neighborhoods, winning more than 50% of the vote in those precincts and leading Trump by an average of five points.

Alterra North was the most pro-Harris precinct with 54% of voters there casting ballots for the vice president, compared with just under 47% for Trump.

Trump, however, leads the state of Arizona by five percentage points over Harris as of 1 p.m. in a red herring of a swing state it turned out Trump would not need to win 270 electoral votes.

The Maricopa Meadows, El Dorado, Province, Maricopa Wells, Maricopa Fiesta and Santa Rosa precincts were barometers for Pinal County and indeed Arizona as voters there preferred Trump, who averaged 53% of the vote across those six precincts.

Santa Rosa was the most MAGA precinct inside city limits, with 56% of voters there supporting Trump and less than 43% for Harris.

The most partisan districts in the Maricopa community, however, were just past city limits. The Ak-Chin Indian Community voted 80-20 in favor of Harris, while Trump won two-thirds of the vote in Thunderbird Farms and a commanding 70% in Hidden Valley.
