Carly Fiorina plotting bid to chair Republican National Committee
- 8 years ago
Former HP CEO and 2016 presidential contender Carly Fiorina is actively laying the groundwork for a bid to be the next chair of the Republican National Committee, according to state GOP officials who have followed her plans.
Fiorina and her aides plotted a dynamic fall season of travel to states with and without close Republicans races as she aims to help down-ballot Republicans.
The campaign for the chairmanship would be moot if Donald Trump wins the White House, but Fiorina isn’t betting on a Trump win—in fact, the opposite.
In phone calls and emails, Fiorina reached out to party chairs across the country as well as RNC committee-men and -women who will elect a successor to incumbent RNC chairman Reince Priebus in January.
