Amy Mitchell, to Eliminate Any Undue Influence, Steps-Down as Park County Republicans Chair

At the January 10th, 2024, Park County Republican Central Committee Meeting (PCRCC), Chairperson Amy Mitchell resigned the Chair position to eliminate any perception of undue influence, effective February 1, 2024. Republican Party candidates have two options to gain access to the primary election ballot: 1) go through the Republican Party process of caucus and county assembly, or 2) petition onto the primary ballot by obtaining the requisite number of Park County Republican signatures. Mitchell stated at the January 10 meeting "if a Republican candidate wanted to run against me for commissioner district 1 using the county assembly process, it would be wrong for me to be chairperson of the Party". Even though Mitchell has no Party opposition, she resigned based on principle. There will be a new chairperson elected at the regular February 14th PCRCC meeting, held at the Fairplay Community Center. The meeting starts at 7PM.
