Ron Weiser, UM regent, former ambassador, to lead Michigan GOP after contentious race
Ron Weiser won his third term Saturday as chairman of the Michigan Republican Party, two days after party leadership leveled payoff allegations against him.
Weiser, a University of Michigan board regent and longtime Republican donor, will take the reins of the Michigan GOP alongside his co-chair Meshawn Maddock, a grassroots organizer for former President Donald Trump who led calls last year to overturn the state s election results.
Weiser said his win Saturday, where he took 66% of the vote, was just the beginning of the party s plan for victory in 2022 and unifying our party.
