The 2024 U.S. presidential election is expected to hinge on a few key swing states, particularly Arizona, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. These states have historically been battlegrounds, with close margins deciding the outcome. Arizona, in particular, has faced significant scrutiny and challenges since the 2020 election, prompting officials to enhance security measures against potential disinformation and chaos during the upcoming election.
Election authorities in Arizona, including Secretary of State Adrian Fontes and Maricopa County Supervisor Bill Gates, are preparing for various scenarios that could arise from misinformation campaigns and foreign interference. They have implemented robust physical and digital security measures to protect the electoral process, including hiring a dedicated chief information security officer.
