Kurt Michael resigns as head of Augusta County party

6th District committee ignores fact-finding group’s report

The 6th District Republican Committee will meet May 2 in Lexington to decide who is chairman of the Augusta County Republican Committee.
Both Larry Roller of Mount Sidney and incumbent Chairman Kurt Michael are claiming leadership of the committee, but 6th District Chairman Fred Anderson said the ultimate decision will be up the 6th District Committee.

Embattled Augusta County Republican Committee Chairman Kurt Michael insists he is still in charge, and tonight, he will seat county delegates to both the 6th District and Virginia Republican conventions.
