Amidst mounting pressure, Florida GOP Party Chair, Jim Greer plans to exit his post next month, sources say.
Over the past few weeks, there has been an increasing chorus from party leaders and major contributors to the GOP for Greer to step down. These voices cite: questionable expenditures that have been undertaken, a more divisive party and lackluster fundraising efforts.
Hand-picked for the position of party chair by Governor Charlie Crist in 2007, Greer’s departure is yet another blow to the embattled Crist who is in a neck-and-neck race with Marco Rubio for the GOP Senate nomination.
