Nevada GOP moves to punish Fox News contributor who endorsed Dem. over scandal-plagued Republican [View all]

The Nevada Republican Party is moving to punish its former chairwoman for endorsing two Democratic candidates in November's election.

Amy Tarkanian, a regular contributor on Fox News and Newsmax, offered support for Democratic state treasurer Zach Conine's re-election bid against Republican Michele Fiore and Democratic attorney general Aaron Ford's re-election campaign against Republican nominee Sigal Chattah, reported the Las Vegas Sun.

The conservative pundit was invited to appear Aug. 11 at the Douglas County GOP board meeting to discuss the endorsements, and she shared a letter on social media from the chairman of the county's Republican Party central committee seeking her resignation -- although she's not entirely sure she remains a member of the committee.

“I think I am, but I’m not sure,” Tarkanian said. “I don’t go to their meetings at all. I think maybe I’ve gone to two meetings since I’ve been up here, and we lived here for three years. It’s kind of funny that they would feel this is something that would affect me.”
