CHARLESTON Melody Potter, the first woman to lead the West Virginia Republican Party into legislative supermajorities, the re-election of the Democrat-turned-Republican governor, and an all-Republican Board of Public Works, resigned Monday evening.
“I am resigning my position as Chairwoman of the West Virginia Republican Party, effective immediately,” Potter wrote in a letter to members of the West Virginia Republican Executive Committee on Monday evening. “I am sorry that I have not been able to notify you before now.”
