Orange County GOP Chairman resigns....

Orange County Republican Chairman Robert Krahulik has resigned his post in the wake of a sexting controversy after the state Republican Party leader publicly called for him to do so just a few days earlier.

The Republican Committee announced this morning that Krahulik had submitted a resignation letter and that his departure takes effect immediately. The decision elevates the county GOP's second in command, First Vice Chairman Courtney Canfield-Greene, to the chairman's position.

“I am pleased Mr. Krahulik has put the Orange County Republican Party and its candidates first,” she said in a press release. “Now we can all re-focus on the critical work that lay ahead during the 2014 Election season.”
