Related: About this forumFlorida GOP to hold no-confidence vote in RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/florida-gop-hold-no-confidence-vote-rncs-ronna-mcdaniel-rcna62834The Florida GOP plans to hold a no-confidence vote in Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel next month, a crucial test of the embattled leaders strength just days before her own re-election.
Republican insiders say Florida has deep symbolic importance because it has consistently outperformed the national party in resisting the blue wave in 2018, re-electing Donald Trump when he lost the White House in 2020 and generating a red wave that failed to materialize nearly everywhere else in November.
After those three disappointing elections nationwide for the GOP, McDaniel began to face withering criticism from grassroots activists, party officials and conservative commentators. Earlier this month, the Texas GOP voted unanimously against her in a nonbinding vote, and then on Wednesday, members of the Florida GOP's executive committee successfully petitioned for the straw vote on whether to terminate her as leader, according to the petition.
Floridas the most-talked-about Republican state and were going to vote Ronna down, Anthony Sabatini, the GOP chair in Lake County who gathered the no-confidence petition, told NBC News. Its going to cause a cascading effect. Shes just steadily losing support. She knows people are just really mad. They all want her gone.

from the Washington post who is a putrid conservative wrote about this. McDaniel has almost no impact. It is really the leadership of the party since they set the "agenda".

If republican leadership were not incompetent, they would not be republicans

But if such a thing does, then I call on all Floridians who are done with that little wiener to give a vote of no confidence to DeSantis and his cronies. I mean... if this means something. (Hint: it is just show and means nothing.)
