Ronna Romney McDaniel
NEW YORK (AP) — The Republican National Committee is set to resolve a bitter leadership feud that is exposing dangerous divisions within the institution charged with electing the next Republican president. The race for RNC chair will be decided on Friday by secret ballot as Republican officials from all 50 states gather in Southern California. Current RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel is fighting for reelection. One of former President Donald Trump’s attorneys, Harmeet Dhillon, has led a fierce campaign against McDaniel, harnessing the energy of Trump’s “MAGA” movement. Friday’s vote serves as the latest high-profile leadership test for a deeply divided Republican Party grappling with questions about its future and Trump’s influence.
