FERNANDINA BEACH, Fla.—Ronna McDaniel, an ally of President Trump, was re-elected the Republican National Committee chairwoman as the party weighs its future after losing control of the White House and both chambers of Congress in the past two years.
Her re-election comes at the end of a week in which the GOP lost control of the Senate in the new Congress and as a Trump-inspired mob attacked the Capitol as lawmakers were gathered to certify his election loss.
Ms. McDaniel condemned the violence in remarks Friday but made no mention of Mr. Trump’s role in encouraging his supporters to go to the Capitol to try to overturn the November election.
