Is Arizona turning purple?

More from this show

The 2018 midterms in Arizona saw a Democrat elected for U.S. Senate for the first time in decades as well as Democrats elected to state offices previously held by Republicans for over 20 years. Does that mean Arizona is now turning purple or perhaps even shading toward blue? Tempe pollster Mike O’Neil of O’Neil Associates talks about the political climate in Arizona.
