2020 Election Results: How Arlington Voted For Trump, Biden

ARLINGTON, MA — The dust is still settling on a historic election, and the question of who will be president in 2021 is still unclear. But one thing is clear: Arlington overwhelmingly showed up in support of Democratic candidates, heavily favoring Joe Biden over President Donald Trump and voting to re-elect Sen. Ed Markey and Rep. Katherine Clark.

Arlington voted in favor of the right to repair ballot question, which won handily in Massachusetts. However, the town deviated from the rest of the state on Question 2, favoring ranked-choice voting by a wide margin. The measure failed to pass with 54 percent of voters against and 43 percent in favor.

Turnout was 85 percent in Arlington, with 28,029 of 32,918 registered voters casting ballots.
