Disarray! Colorado Republicans Vote To Oust Party Leadership
Imagine that, putting extremists in positions of authority over your state party not ending well. Who'd a thunk it?
The same scenario played out in Michigan with the ouster of Kristina Karamo. That took months to resolve and doesn't seem to be quite over, as she was recently escorted out of their party convention by police.

BRIGHTON, Colo. — Members of Colorado's Republican Party voted to remove the party's top leadership from office Saturday.
Dave Williams, Vice Chair Hope Scheppelman, and Secretary Anna Ferguson were voted out as leaders of the Colorado GOP Saturday, but those party leaders have already said they considered Saturday’s meeting and vote fake.
Party members also voted on who will now lead the state party, electing Eli Bremer as the new chairman.
“To those who say don’t change the rider in the middle of a race, that’s a valid argument, unless of course the rider is trying to kill the horse,” said El Paso County Republican Vice Chairman Todd Watkins.
Watkins has been trying to oust Williams for months.
