The Republican National Committee determined Kristina Karamo was “properly removed” as MIGOP chair, according to its initial review.
This news comes just weeks after a January 6 meeting when the Michigan Republican Party voted to remove Karamo; however, Karamo pushed back.
She and her supporters released their own report days later, claiming the party’s bylaws were violated and the decision to remove her as chairperson was null and void.

In a letter, the RNC Counsel’s Office states it “has reviewed the MIGOP Bylaws, meeting minutes and other materials provided by both sides in this dispute. Based upon its initial review, it appears to the Counsel’s Office that Ms. Karamo was properly removed in accordance with the MIGOP Bylaws on January 6. That said, the Counsel’s Office’s determination is not dispositive, and it recognizes that additional information could conceivably come to light which changes its view.”
