DELAWARE: Libertarians taking part in Republican censure efforts of GOP Chair

Upper Delaware establishment GOP vs. Downstater grass roots battle continues

From Eric Dondero:

Downstate Delaware Republicans are furious with State Party Chairman Tom Ross for his treatment of Christine O'Donnell during the general election. A meeting was held Monday night in Sussex County to pass a resolution of censure of the Chairman.

Ross had said during the campaign, that O'Donnell "couldn't be elected dog catcher," and made other similar derogatory remarks about the Tea Party favorite.

Taking part in the censure effort, at least one Libertarian Party member.

From Delaware Online:

After a rancorous debate Monday night at a Sussex County Republican Party meeting in Georgetown, a vote was taken by voice, and it appeared the majority was in favor of censuring Ross, said county GOP Chairman Ron Sams. But Sams said he was unsure whether there was a quorum of election district committee chairmen, who are the only ones who have voting power in the county party's central committee.

Sams said nearly 200 people attended the meeting -- about double the turnout for a regular meeting -- at the Sussex County Association of Realtors building. "I'm not sure if everybody there were Republicans. I know one was a Libertarian," Sams said.
