Biden’s lead narrows in Arizona, but Trump still faces an uphill battle.

 PHOENIX — The latest update from Arizona’s most populous county shows Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s lead over President Trump further narrowing in the battleground state.

As of early Thursday, Mr. Biden led Mr. Trump in Maricopa County by 74,514 votes, almost 11,000 fewer than the previous update on Wednesday night. About 5 percent of the total vote remains to be counted there. Statewide, Mr. Biden leads Mr. Trump by less than three percentage points.

Maricopa County’s next update will come after 9 p.m. Eastern on Thursday.

In the two batches of results released by the county late Wednesday and early Thursday, totaling almost 140,000 ballots, Mr. Trump’s share of the vote was almost 60 percent, which experts have said is about what he needs to win the state and its 11 electoral votes. But Mr. Trump would also have to receive the same proportion of votes that remain to be counted in other parts of the state as well, including counties that tend to vote Democratic.

Mr. Biden’s narrow edge underscored a profound political shift in Arizona, a longtime Republican bastion that has lurched left in recent years, fueled by rapidly evolving demographics and a growing contingent of young Latino voters who favor liberal policies. Scores of Trump supporters who are suspicious of the early results favoring Mr. Biden gathered outside the Maricopa County election office on Wednesday, delaying the final announcement of the night amid security concerns.
