June 17, 2019 Tresa Howell Chair, Kanawha County Republican Executive Committee 217 Midnight Drive (PO Box 283) Winifrede, WV 25214 Dear Madam Chair, We the undersigned - collectively representing decades of experience on the Kanawha County Republican Executive Committee and including two former Chairs - believe that the Committee needs to move in a different direction in order to best prepare for next year's important elections. We appreciate and thank you for your service to the KCREC, but feel strongly that the Committee has not been, and is not now, functioning as well as it could and should be. Please consider this letter as our appeal for you to step down from the position of leadership you now hold. Thank you for your consideration. We look forward to receiving your response no later than July 2, 2019.
