The\u2064 poll indicates that 49%\u2063 of \u200dlikely\u200d Trump voters \u200bbelieve he should accept the results regardless of\u2062 the\u2063 outcome, while \u206347% think he should challenge the results if\u2062 Vice President Kamala Harris wins. Conversely, a significant majority (82%) \u2062of likely\u2064 Harris voters feel she should accept the election results, with only 12% advocating for a challenge if she loses to Trump. The context includes ongoing legal ramifications from Trump&#8217;s past election challenges, \u200cwhich have led to several indictments of his allies.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Arizona Trump voters split on if he should contest an election loss<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1839401\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Former President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"election\">Donald Trump<\/a> disputed the results of the 2020 election in its immediate aftermath, launching various <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/porn-advocates-sue-indiana-ag-over-law-shielding-minors-from-online-filth\/\" title=\"Porn Advocates File Lawsuit Against Indiana AG to Challenge Law Protecting Minors from Explicit Online Content\">unsuccessful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/poll-donald-trump-job-approval-shifts-to-52-percent\/\" title=\"Poll: Donald Trump Job Approval Shifts to 52 Percent\">legal challenges<\/a><\/a>, and his supporters in Arizona are split on whether he should do that again if he loses next month&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/2024-elections\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"election\">election<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>A CBS News-YouGov <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-harris-poll-arizona-10-17-2024\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"poll\">poll<\/a> shows that a narrow plurality of likely Trump voters in the Grand Canyon State believe Trump should accept the results, no matter who wins, (49%), while 47% believe that he should challenge the results if Vice President Kamala Harris emerges victorious.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Supporters of Republican presidential nominee former President Donald Trump hold border security banners during a campaign rally on Oct. 13, 2024, in Prescott Valley, Arizona.
