A Michigan court affirmed the removal of Kristina Karamo as chair of the Michigan Republican Party. The state GOP committee voted in January to remove Karamo from her position, and the court ruling upheld that decision. Any actions Karamo has taken on behalf of the party since her removal in January were deemed "void" by the court. The ruling is a victory for Pete Hoekstra, who has been recognized as the rightful party chair by the RNC and former President Trump. The decision settles an internal leadership dispute ahead of the party's convention, where delegates for the 2024 primaries will be allocated.
