Clear the way for Trump's daughter-in-law? Republican leader resigns. Republican National Committee (RNC) co-chair Drew McKissick also announced his resignation.

The RNC organizes the nomination party conference, at which the delegates formally elect the Republican presidential candidate after the primary elections. On March 5th, the so-called Super Tuesday, primaries for the 2024 US election will take place in more than a dozen states. It is expected that a preliminary decision will be made as to who the Republicans will send into the actual presidential election in November.
