GOP members criticize RNC's Ronna McDaniel for spending, weak grassroots work for 2024

As the Republican National Committee had its annual meeting this past week in Las Vegas, several GOP members expressed concerns about the party’s leadership going into the 2024 election cycle, with its “worst-ever financial situation” and limited focus on both grassroots efforts and supporting the 2020 alternate electors. 

After the failure of a “red wave” to materialize in the 2022 midterm elections and as the GOP looks to take back the White House, Republican Party members have criticized the lack of aid that both the 2020 alternate electors and grassroots have received as the RNC is experiencing financial trouble. Some are pointing to a lack of leadership from RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel.

Ahead of the RNC’s annual meeting, former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy called for McDaniel to resign. At the beginning of January, Ramaswamy posted on his X account, "The Republican Establishment has made us a party of losers. Where is the accountability for years of losing: 2018, 2020, 2022 & 2023? Grassroots conservatives across the nation are joining me to end the culture of surrender and losing. Resign, Ronna.
