Following the surprise resignation of Broward Republican Party chair Christine Butler on Monday, REDBROWARD spoke with Broward Republican Vice Chair Robert Sutton. The Party board met Monday night to discuss changes and new events. As vice chair, Sutton will become chair when Butler leaves on August 31.
An email to party members on Tuesday echoed the discussion at the board meeting. The Party wished Butler well with her upcoming marriage and urged everybody to celebrate her service at the August meeting.
Dear BREC Members:
Yesterday our Chairman, Christine Butler, announced she will be getting married and moving to Palm Beach County in September, and we, her Board, would like to sincerely and publicly thank her for her years of service to BREC and especially her time as Chairman.
As a reminder, there is no meeting scheduled for July and Christine’s last meeting as Chair will be the meeting on Monday, August 24th at 7:00 p.m. at the Deicke Auditorium in Plantation. (5701 Cypress Rd, Plantation, FL 33317)
Please join us in congratulating Christine and wishing her the best in her upcoming nuptials and all of her future endeavors!
Mitt Romney and Broward Republican Chairman Richard DeNapoli
Local Republicans are working hard this Saturday for Mitt Romney, Connie Mack and local GOP favorites. Early this morning the Broward Republican headquarters filled with volunteers stuffing mailers into envelopes and making phone calls. Broward Republican chairman Richard DeNapoli emailed thousands of activists and flooded social media with a call to action. Over at Broward Beat, Buddy Nevins wrote how the Republicans are eclipsing the Broward Democrats under the lackluster leadership of Mitch Cesar (D-Comedian):
“The question will be if the Obama ground operation here — an operation that has remained largely invisible to this voter so far — can produce the big turnout that Democrats need.
Local Democratic activists candidly say they doubt whether Broward can deliver. The excitement is gone and the local party is divided.
Meanwhile, Broward Republicans are on fire.”
In addition to the GOP HQ, volunteers are working at the Romney offices in Fort Lauderdale and Coral Springs.
