PHOENIX (AP) - Two top aides to Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey are moving on.
Ducey’s office announced Thursday that Chief of Staff Daniel Scarpinato will join a Washington-based advertising and political consulting firm and that Deputy Chief of Staff Gretchen Conger is headed to Arkansas to serve as a senior adviser on Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ campaign for governor.
Both Scarpinato and Conger have served on Ducey’s staff since he took office in 2015.
