"Michigan GOP Faces Leadership Turmoil as Chair Karamo Defies Ouster Attempts"

Michigan Republicans are set to vote on the removal of state GOP Chairwoman Kristina Karamo, who has been criticized for her leadership resulting in debt and infighting within the party. Karamo, who has promoted election conspiracies and was backed by Trump, refuses to concede her 2022 loss and has stated she will not recognize the removal vote, calling the meeting illegal. The dispute could lead to a court battle for control of the party as it prepares for the 2024 elections, aiming to win a U.S. Senate seat and support the Republican presidential nominee in the battleground state. The party is also facing financial challenges, with nearly $500,000 in debt and a lawsuit involving their headquarters.
