In November 2026, Democrats secured a historic trifecta in Arizona, winning the House, Senate, and governor's office after President Trump's 2024 victory. This outcome, occurring 60 years after the last Democratic trifecta, could enable state-level reforms for groundwater and climate policies. The blue wave is expected to fundamentally alter Arizona's response to deadly heat and persistent drought driven by climate change.
