Dave Williams Ousted as Colorado GOP Chairman

Dave Williams has been ousted as the chairman of the Colorado Republican Party following a contentious vote where approximately 160 of 180 members supported his removal. Williams's leadership faced significant backlash due to his controversial statements against the LGBTQ+ community and accusations of misusing party resources to bolster his own congressional campaign. The Colorado GOP claimed the vote was illegitimate, noting that many members were absent, but they will hold another vote on August 31. His tenure had been marked by divisions within the party, especially after endorsing specific candidates in primaries, which is typically avoided by state parties. Eli Bremer has been appointed as his replacement, immediately endorsing all Republican candidates for the upcoming elections. Williams has dismissed the vote as a 'sham' and disputes the legitimacy of the proceedings.
