Michigan Republicans set to vote on chair Karamo’s removal as she promises not to accept result
Michigan Republicans plan to discuss the removal of state GOP Chairwoman Kristina Karamo at a forthcoming meeting, due to a year of leadership marked by debt and infighting. Karamo has stated that she will not acknowledge the vote if removed, claiming the meeting is illegal, leading to potential legal disputes over control of the Michigan GOP. The situation occurs as Michigan Republicans aim to recover from 2022 midterm losses and prepare for the 2024 presidential election. Karamo, a former community college instructor, gained prominence in Michigan’s Republican party by spreading election conspiracies after the 2020 presidential election and was supported by former President Donald Trump. The party also faces financial challenges, with nearly $500,000 in debt as of October and Karamo and the party suing the trust that owns their headquarters in hopes of selling the building to pay off debts.
