Who will win Arizona in the 2008 Presidential Election?

Settled as McCain

Arizona is GOP nominee John McCain's home state. It's very likely that McCain will win the state in the election. That said as per current Rasmussen polling McCain enjoys only a 9 point lead in the state. This is down from a 20 point lead which McCain enjoyed prior to Clinton's defeat.

The state has voted Republican in every election but one since 1952. So it's unlikely Obama can win the state.

* Due to the impending creation of a "Hubdub Electoral Map" and the need to have multi-option state markets instead of yes/no ones, this market will not be seen as a duplicate of this market
