Per The Hill “Helen Tutwiler, the chair for the Kennebec County Republican Committee, told News Center Maine that she knows “a lot of people” are “asking the GOP to do something,” adding, “What exactly that is, I’m not sure.”
The report adds that Maine GOP Chair Demi Kouzounas told members “many of you are upset after what happened today as are we” and “to be prepared for an emergency state committee meeting in the near future” to discuss Collins’s vote.
