This is unfortunate news, as Brown County GOP Chair Katie Washnok, a generational carrier of water for the elephant, is stepping down from her position to let someone else take up the reins.

I hope Katie does continue to stay engaged . She is an important voice for the Republican Party and we cannot afford to lose effective leaders like her.
Especially since the other three are anti-economic development and voted consistently against the pipeline bills.
The brain trust of novstrup, hot carl, brandei and dennert will produce for Aberdeen like never before. Enjoy the benefits people. You get what you deserve.
Don’t forget Engelhart….. she’s right there with them.
Let the Circus begin!
I can’t blame her. BCGOP took her for granted and now they will learn the hard way.
I could not have said it better!!!
Feeling that brain drain? Yeah, now imagine when these morons that drove her out control the South Dakota legislature. Might as well set your tax dollars on fire.
The Brown County gop was once an inclusive place.
Katie is a rock star. And she is a saint for having stuck with the Brown Co GOP this long while knowing that too many of them want to burn the house down with her inside. She will excel in whatever opportunities she is exploring.
Katie is a good leader. The rift in the party is not healthy. She will be missed.
If another in the long line of “anonymous” commenters on this site cannot even spell “anonymous”, should we take any of this seriously?
Should you reject the opinions of an entire group of people because one can’t spell? I dunno, friendo, you seem to love your own intellect. Why don’t you tell us?
This is so sad. She was a GREAT Leader of the GOP. I hope she stays connected to the party. She will do wonderful anywhere she goes or whatever she chooses to do.
Katie will represent Aberdeen well in the state senate this year.
