Arizona state Republican Party censured former Sen. Jeff Flakes, Cindy McCain, and Gov. Doug Ducey.
Flakes and McCain both openly supported Biden for President. Gov. Ducey refused to overturn Biden’s win in the state of Arizona.

Sad what a cult of personality that party has become. In some areas at least. The next year or two will be interesting.

In case anyone wants to know the given reason behind the censures:
"The party censured Ducey over his decision to impose emergency rules during the pandemic that the GOP said "restrict personal liberties and force compliance to unconstitutional edicts."
McCain, who endorsed President Joe Biden, "has supported globalist policies and candidates" and "condemned President Trump for his criticism of her husband and erroneously placed behaviors over actual presidential results."
Flake has "condemned the Republican Party, rejected populism, and rejected the interests of the American people over globalist interests." The party suggested Flake join the Democrats."
