Robert Branscomb, who was selected as chairperson of the Arizona Democratic Party in January, has been removed from the post after only serving approximately six months.

There is a major shakeup within the Arizona Democratic Party, as party chair Robert Branscomb was ousted, only six months after he was elected to the post.

Arizona Democrats have removed their chair just six months into a tumultuous tenure. Two-thirds of the state Democratic committee voted Wednesday to oust Robert Branscomb following public disputes with top Democratic leaders and concerns about fundraising.
