Trump's election appeal is being put to the test in the key primary of Arizona.
Arizona held its 2026 midterm election party primary on Tuesday local time, which is the only primary in July across the United States and an important indicator before the November midterm elections.

In March, Petersen transferred details of the Arizona Senate's Maricopa County 2020 election ballot audit to the FBI, drawing strong criticism from the Democrats.
