Well California Prop 7 passed with 60% of voters in favor of keeping daylight savings time all year round.
The proposal grants the California State Legislature the power to vote to change the clocks permanently. But, any such changes would need to start with a two-thirds majority vote in the state legislature and then be approved by Congress, so it's not clear when/if it will become a reality.
Florida approved a similar proposition earlier this year and Senator Rubio has pushed forward two bills to put year round daylight savings time into effect in the state, but Congress hasn't prioritized/considered them at all so far.
(Except for reservations) Arizona did succeed in doing away with time changes back in the late 1960s though. So, it could happen.
