Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, who left the Democratic Party last year and registered as an independent, said she is “absolutely” done with parties and will never join the Republican Party.

In an interview with CBS' “Face the Nation” at the McCain Institute at Arizona State University, aired on Sunday, Sinema said it’s “unfortunate” for her state and the country that the two political parties “have gotten more and more extreme.”
