HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) – Pennsylvania’s Republican Party is trying to amicably settle a contested race for chairman between a candidate who had backing from Trump campaign officials, and a rival. Bernadette Comfort instead will serve as President Donald Trump campaign’s chairwoman. The state GOP’s former general counsel, Lawrence Tabas, will be the consensus candidate for state party chairman. Party activists accuse Comfort of ignoring complaints of sexual harassment by state party officials, accusations she’s denied.
