| Description | A group of dissatisfied Republican Party members were slapped down by more traditional delegates in Saturday's state GOP convention when Joe Cannon was re-elected chairman, Vice Chairman Frank Guliuzza was booted out and delegates voted down a number of party rule changes that the "vocal minority" wanted.
Guliuzza told delegates that he had fought for them over the past two years, trying to get good-old-boy leaders in the party to pay more attention to "the grass-roots" members. But in the end, former U.S. Rep. Enid Greene — coming out of political seclusion after basically being driven from office in 1996 by a fund-raising/financial scandal she blames on her ex-husband Joe Waldholtz — defeated Guliuzza on a second vice chair ballot, 53-46 percent. |
