Michigan GOP chair Kristina Karamo rightly ousted, say RNC lawyers

Swing state's Republican party has seen two feuding groups claiming to be its legitimate leaders in recent weeks

The Republican National Committee's (RNC) top attorneys have declared they believe the Michigan GOP (MIGOP) chair, Kristina Karamo, was legitimately ousted from her position earlier this month, ending weeks of silence from the national party on a leadership crisis that has engulfed state Republicans.

The factional split within the Michigan Republican party, over ideological differences as well as personal ones, has sown chaos in the swing state party with just months to go before the 2024 presidential election. In recent weeks, tensions escalated, with two feuding groups within the state party claiming to be its legitimate leaders.
