Legislative district committees exist in counties of more than 500,000 people (Maricopa and Pima Counties), and include all PCs within that district. Officers are elected at Organizational Meetings after the general election including a chairman, two vice chairs, a secretary and a treasurer.
Precinct committeemen are elected one per precinct, plus one additional for each 125 registered voters of that party as of March 1 of the general election year. There are over 1,666 precincts statewide (including over 724 precincts in Maricopa County.)
These are the Republican Party members who hold federal offices. [11]
Both of Arizona's U.S. Senate seats have been held the Democratic caucus since 2020. Martha McSally was the last Republican to represent Arizona in the U.S. Senate. Appointed in 2019 by Governor Doug Ducey after the resignation of Jon Kyl who was appointed to the seat after the death of John McCain in 2018, McSally lost the 2020 special election to determine who would serve the remainder of the term expiring in 2023. McSally lost the special election to Democratic challenger Mark Kelly, who won a full term in 2022, defeating Blake Masters. John McCain was the last Republican elected to represent Arizona in the U.S. Senate in 2016, while Jeff Flake was the last Republican to represent Arizona for a full term in the U.S. Senate from 2013 to 2019.
Out of the nine seats Arizona is apportioned in the U.S. House of Representatives, six are held by Republicans:
