Arizona Republican Party

The organizational convention of the Republican Party in the Arizona Territory, chaired by James Churchman, was held on November 6–7, 1866, in Prescott, Arizona. Republicans held both of the state's U.S. Senate seats between 1995 and 2019, and the governorship for all but six years between 1991 and 2023. Republican presidential candidates won the state in every election between 1996 and 2020. The party's cash reserves fell from around $770,000 in 2019, to less than $50,000 in 2023. The organization spent $300,000 on legal counseling while attempting to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and $500,000 on an election night party in 2022. ==Current structure==
