\n Joe Arpaio narrowly lost his Republican primary bid to reclaim his old job as sheriff of Maricopa County.<\/p>\n

The fiery anti-immigrant hardliner and ardent President Trump supporter was defeated by his former chief of staff and fellow conservative, Jerry Sheridan.<\/p>\n

Sheridan will now face the Democratic Sheriff Paul Penzone in the November general<\/a> election. Penzone unseated Arpaio, 88, four years ago, ending the controversial sheriff\u2019s 24-year run in office.<\/p>\n

Sheridan has pushed policies similar to Arpaio\u2019s while pledging to avoid the legal trouble that beset the self-anointed \u201ctoughest sheriff\u201d in America.<\/p>\n

\u201c[Arpaio] loved and lived for the media<\/a> attention,\u201d Sheridan told the local CBA affiliate earlier this week.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not a grandstander. He did a lot of things for media attention. I will do things for the betterment of the citizens of Maricopa County, and good law enforcement practices.\u201d<\/p>\n

Arpaio is known for detaining immigrants in outdoor tents in Arizona\u2019s 100-degrees-plus temperatures.<\/p>\n

He was charged with contempt of court in 2016 for having ignored a federal judge\u2019s order to stop arresting immigrants based solely on the suspicion that they were in the country illegally.<\/p>\n

His defiance led to frustration in his community after he knowingly took on controversial policies and racked up $147 million in legal bills that had to be paid by taxpayers.<\/p>\n

Arpaio was convicted in July 2017 of a criminal charge for refusing a judge\u2019s order to stop racially profiling residents and arresting immigrants who were only suspected of being undocumented.<\/p>\n

Trump pardoned him the next month.<\/p>\n

The loss was Arpaio\u2019s second failed attempt to return to politics since he was unseated in 2016. He ran an unsuccessful primary bid for U.S. Senate in 2018.<\/p>\n

He later filed a $300 million defamation lawsuit against CNN, the Huffington Post and Rolling Stone for allegedly publishing inaccuracies that hurt his chances to win a ticket to Congress.<\/p>\n

A federal judge tossed the suit last year arguing that Arpaio failed to prove malice behind the articles.<\/p>\n
