Mike Faulk Resigns as Hawkins County GOP Vice-Chair; Cites Inability to Support Sen. Mike Williams as Reason
You can read Mike Faulk's letter of resignation over at Mountain 'publican.
I can back up Mike's comments on the U.S. Senate race. No one knew where he stood, which is as it should be.
On a related note, at least 3/4 of the GOP county chairs in the state of Tennessee should also resign their posts because they openly violated their oath of office by publicly supporting one candidate or the other. A lot of people won't like to hear that, but it's the truth.
Mike's resigning because he doesn't feel he can stay neutral and support all GOP candidates. The others weren't neutral and should do the same. Kudos to Mike for being preemptive in his actions (even if there are obvious political points that he can score with them as he targets Williams' Senate seat).
Mike Faulk is a man of integrity, and I wish him the best of luck at taking the fight to Williams.
