Oh, I’d keep quiet about that, if I were him. He’s done quite enough damage to his local party structure as it is.
The chair of the Ventura County [California] Democratic Party has apologized for a series of tweets he sent out over the Fourth of July weekend that infuriated local Republicans and brought calls for his resignation.
Ventura resident David Atkins, who has served as party chair since 2012, found himself the target of the National Republican Congressional Committee after posting several messages on Independence Day implying the GOP sided with the Nazis prior to the outset of World War II and wanted women to go back to the days of “coathanger induced sepsis” with regard to abortions.
Atkins also expressed the opinion that most Republican voters are old white men and that he was waiting for them to die.
