Waldo County Republicans call for censure of state GOP chairman after caucus controversy

[RandySF]

AUGUSTA, Maine — Members of the Waldo County GOP Committee voted Tuesday evening to recommend a censure of Maine Republican Party Chairman Charlie Webster for his handling of the party’s presidential caucuses.

Raymond St. Onge, who leads the Waldo County GOP, said the initial motion was to call for a vote of no confidence in Webster and a recommendation that he step down from his post. That motion was amended to recommend a censure instead. The amended motion passed by a strong majority, St. Onge said.

The censure recommendation will be taken up at the state GOP committee meeting on March 10. A censure is essentially a nonbinding but public slap on the wrist.

Webster is under fire for his handling of the Republican caucuses, particularly Saturday’s announcement that former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney had narrowly defeated Texas Congressman Ron Paul in the state’s presidential preference poll.
