Michigan GOP Nominates Candidates Amid Turmoil

News summary

During the Michigan Republican Party's convention in Flint, delegates nominated candidates for key statewide offices, including State Rep. Andrew Fink for the open Michigan Supreme Court seat and Circuit Judge Bill O’Grady for a partial term. The event, however, was marred by internal conflicts, including the forcible removal of former chair Kristina Karamo, who criticized the party's leadership. Current chair Pete Hoekstra faced boos from attendees as he emphasized the need for unity amidst ongoing factionalism. Tensions were evident as disputes arose over delegate credentials and leadership claims in Kalamazoo County. While the party successfully selected candidates, the atmosphere highlighted deep divisions, particularly surrounding support for former President Trump. Hoekstra noted that dissenting elements have diminished compared to previous months but acknowledged the challenges that lie ahead.
