The reason for not including that status in favor of Joe Biden is that so far 88% of the votes have been counted in Arizona, and on portals like Google, they put it in dark blue, as if the vote had already been closed.

In contrast, the aforementioned means take into account that 12% remain to be scrutinized, equivalent to 470,000 votes, which is enough for either candidate to take the spoils of 11 electoral votes offered by this state, as Newsweek reports.
At the moment, the difference in votes for the state of Arizona is only 68,390 votes, in favor of Joe Biden, who accumulates 1,469,341 votes there, against 1,400,951 for Donald Trump.
Trump wants Arizona
Donald Trump hopes to give the “surprise” and surpass the Democratic candidate Joe Biden, who media such as the Associated Press (AP) and the Fox News television network gave as the winner on election night.
But the electoral thriller continues on America’s screens. Arizona, an impregnable conservative fiefdom since the progressive Bill Clinton (1993-2001) won in 1996, may change its sign in the next few hours.
The task is difficult, but not impossible: Trump should be supported by just over 57% of the remaining votes statewide. There is hope in the White House.
Maricopa County is key
Maricopa has become a trend on Twitter in several countries, including the United States and Spain. The reason that this county, whose capital is Phoenix, is on everyone’s lips is because there are still about 275,000 votes to be counted, according to the latest update from local authorities.
That is if the followers of Donald Trump and far-right protesters let the professionals do their job, since during the day yesterday, Wednesday, hundreds protested in front of the county offices shouting the following slogan: “Count my vote!”
Just unlike another group of followers of the current president in Michigan, who ask that the count be stopped, or that Trump himself, who this Thursday tweeted “stop counting”, as shown by the following trill:
STOP COUNTING!

The reality is that Maricopa County ranks fourth nationally in Hispanic population in relation to its total inhabitants. The Pew Research Center estimates that about 1.4 million Latinos reside in that county.
