Rick Bennett elected Republican chairman
Rick Bennett, former president of the Maine Senate and CEO of the corporate governance ratings firm GMI Ratings, has been elected as the new chairman of the Maine Republican Party.
The Bangor Daily News reported that a 77-member state party committee elected Bennett to the post Saturday, alongside former state representative Susan Morissette, who will serve as vice chairwoman.
The election of Bennett and Morissette to the top party posts follows the abrupt resignation of former Republican Party Chairman Rich Cebra and Vice Chairwoman Beth O’Connor early this month.
The paper reported the party also voted Saturday to select Bangor as the site of its 2014 state convention.
