Ronna Romney McDaniel Might Be in Trouble

December 21, 2022 · 12:07 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Joe Perticone: “After three consecutive election cycles in which Republicans have underperformed or been outright crushed, Ronna McDaniel’s campaign to hang on as chair of the Republican National Committee has hit a bump in the road.”

“She now has challengers looking to take her job, including right-wing lawyer Harmeet Dhillon, who personally has profited from the Trump era and the McDaniel-run RNC…”

“A source close to Dhillon estimates their whip count to be around 60 of the 168 committee members who will vote on the next chair. The source also noted that many are defections from McDaniel’s initial list of 101 supporters from the November letter.”
