The Arizona Republican Party is the affiliate of the Republican Party in Arizona. Its headquarters are in Phoenix.[2]

Current structure

Here is the structure of the state party, as of Feb 2019.[3]

Elected officers of the State Committee

State Executive Committee

  • The 12 elected officers of the State Committee (listed above)
  • The 15 county Republican chairmen, first-vice and second-vice chairmen
  • The 28 Members-At-Large (three from each of nine congressional districts)
  • National Committeeman and National Committeewoman (RNC members)

State Committee

  • The 15 county Republican chairmen
  • One member for each three elected Republican PCs

The Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer elected at the biannual Statutory Meeting and other officers elected at the biannual Mandatory Meeting (except National Committeeman and Committeewoman, who are elected at quadrennial State Convention).

County committees

County committees include all PCs within that county. They meet in January after general elections to elect a chairman, two vice chairs, a secretary and a treasurer.

Legislative district committees

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

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.)

Federal officials

These are the Republican Party members who hold federal offices.[4]

U.S. Senate

  • None

Both of Arizona's U.S. Senate seats have been held by Democrats 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 2022. McSally lost the special election to Democratic challenger Mark Kelly, who will likely run for a full term in 2022. Jeff Flake was the last Republican elected to represent Arizona in the U.S. Senate in 2012, and the last Republican to represent Arizona for a full term in the U.S. Senate from 2012 to 2018.

U.S. House of Representatives

Out of the nine seats Arizona is apportioned in the U.S. House of Representatives, four are held by Republicans:

State officials

Executive

The Arizona Republican Party holds eight of 15 state executive seats.[5]

Senate

The Arizona Republican Party holds the majority in the Arizona Senate, holding 16 of the 30 seats.[6]
