majority
Maricopa
County
Supervisors.

"Sheriff Paul Penzone
is a Democrat, so the Maricopa County Board
of Supervisors is required to appoint
another Democrat to fulfill the remainder of
the term," Maricopa County Supervisor Steve
Gallardo said., board of supervisor says" [
. . . ] "Gallardo says at least seven
candidates applied, but three, who had been
decades-long Republicans, just switched to
the Democratic Party. Those three are former
