Colorado Republican party infighting continued throughout Labor Day weekend with a contingent of the party’s central committee meeting Saturday in Castle Rock and voting to retain Dave Williams as chairman.
The meeting comes exactly a week after another group of Colorado Republicans gathered in Brighton to vote Williams out of his position — 77 party members gathered for the meeting, alongside 104 proxies. Party members moved to oust Williams after he sent an email from the state party stating that “God hates flags,” and then posting to X that Americans should “Burn all the #pride flags this June.”
Both sides appear to be boycotting the other’s meetings, and Williams touted in a Colorado GOP email that 191.5 votes were cast for his retention as chairperson, while 10 members of the Colorado Republican State Central Committee voted against Williams (some committee members cast fractional votes, per the party rules).
