Tom Mountain resigns as vice chairman of the Massachusetts GOP, citing ‘scurrilous and demeaning’ post Emma Platoff
Massachusetts Republican Party Vice Chairman Tom Mountain is resigning his position, he wrote Sunday night.
“Recently, many of you likely saw a blog post about me. It is scurrilous and demeaning and I will refrain from elaborating on it here,” he said in an email to the 80-member Republican State Committee.
“For the good of our Party, I will be stepping down as MassGOP Vice Chair immediately to focus on an effort to clear my name,” Mountain wrote in the e-mail, which was obtained by the Globe. “During the past few months of turmoil at the MassGOP, I’ve consistently said that incapable officers should step aside. Regardless of the truth about what happened, this blog post, and the conspiracy behind it, has rendered me incapable of serving as an effective officer of the MassGOP.”
