LETTER: Election integrity is a core issue
Dear Editor,
As a 29-year resident, Jasper County is my home. I served as a precinct committeeman for more than 10 years, and for several of those years as vice chairman of the Jasper County Republican Central Committee (JCRCC).
During the Oct. 7 JCRCC meeting, I attempted to open a discussion about election integrity with my precinct committee peers. A few sentences into my opening, the party chairman slammed his hand on the podium and yelled that “we are NOT going to talk about it!”
On Oct. 12, I e-mailed my resignation letter to the chairman and copied the Indiana Republican Party. Days later, I emailed the Indiana Republican Party again expressing my concern that the JCRCC chairman would not permit a discussion about election integrity. I requested a response but did not receive one.
