snip:

In September 2018, six of Gosar's nine siblings released a political campaign ad against their brother and supporting his Democratic opponent, David Brill.[18]

Gosar took to twitter to respond to the advert. He described his siblings as "disgruntled Hillary supporters" who "put political ideology before family".[19]

Gosar defeated Brill in the November 2018 general election, taking 68.2% of the vote.

Don't blame all of us. I and many others worked for and donated to Brill, who is a fine man by the way. Gosar is the opposite, as well as being a terrible public servant and nutjob right winger. We did the best we could do, it's just a heavily gerry-mandered, very red district.

The good news is the Dems won five of nine House seats, as well as Sinema taking the Senate and Dems a couple of other statewide offices.
