Florida Republicans oust state party chairman facing rape allegations in critical election year
apnews.com
The party suspended Christian Ziegler last month and demanded his resignation, stating that he cannot effectively lead during a critical election year with the allegations, which Ziegler denies.

You’d think if they cared about these credible allegations, they would care about some of their candidates credible allegations.

    It’s basically because they don’t put themselves in the position of possibly losing any kind of power. Removing this guy looks good on them, and Florida is so solidly red at this point due to them fucking with the voting process that they have no worries. (Remember, EVERY accusation the Republicans have made, is a confession - Voter fraud is their big accusation right now…)

    Part of the reason Republicans try so hard to give excuses for house seats, and senate seats, is because if they were to call for those expulsions, it would lose them a vote. They don’t give a fuck about being righteous or not, they care about POWER.
