RNC Says Michigan GOP Chair Karamo 'Properly Removed', Dispute Likely to Continue in Court

Former Congressman Pete Hoekstra elected as new chair amid ongoing controversy and legal battles.

Kristina Karamo, the former chair of the Michigan Republican Party, was 'properly removed' from her position according to an initial review by the Republican National Committee (RNC).
The RNC's determination is not final and could change based on additional information.
Karamo, who lost the 2022 secretary of state race by 14 percentage points, has claimed the vote to remove her was 'illegitimate' and 'illegal.'
Former Congressman Pete Hoekstra was elected as the new chair by a group of Michigan GOP members.
The dispute over the Michigan GOP chair position is likely to play out in court in the coming months.
