Harmeet Dhillon warns of ‘crony capitalism’ at RNC, breaks with Trump on early voting

Harmeet Dhillon said she is concerned “crony capitalism” has infected the Republican National Committee, sapping it of the energy and innovation the party needs if it wants to win elections in 2024.

Ms. Dhillon, who is aiming to unseat current RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel when the committee meets in California this week, said she’ll lead a full audit to see who was hired and why, and to come up with a plan to shake things up after several disappointing election cycles.

In an interview with The Washington Times, Ms. Dhillon argued that the RNC needs a more proactive approach to promoting early voting as well as ballot harvesting, breaking with former President Donald Trump who has said voting before Election Day invites fraud.
