Republican State Party Chair and Vice Chair Resigned

At the December 4, 2010,  Utah Republican Party State Central Committee meeting, State GOP Party Chair Dave Hansen and State GOP Party Vice Chair Kitty Dunn officially announced that they will be stepping down from their elected Party positions in order to work on Senator Orrin Hatch’s 2012 re-election campaign.  Kitty Dunn replaced Morgan Philpot who was elected at the State Convention in 2009 and then resigned to run for the 2nd Congressional District.   Dave Hansen and Kitty Dunn will remain in party leadership until January 22, when the State Central Committee will elect  a new Chair and Vice Chair at their meeting.  Hansen’s and Dunn’s terms of office would have expired in June.  Dave Hansen has long been one of Senator Hatch’s closest political advisers.
