Local Pa. Republican committee member under fire for push against Donald Trump

  • Resumen

  • There has been some political drama in Montgomery County connected to the presidential race. A local Republican Committee official says he will not vote for the Republican nominee, former President Donald Trump, and has encouraged others to join him.
