The War of the Republicans. There is a battle going on for the soul of the Massachusetts GOP and control of its operation, fundraising and leadership. It began two years after the first election of Massachusetts Republican Governor Charlie Baker who began to try and replace conservative state party committee members with those who were leaning more to the liberal side.

A pivotal point in this fight will be reached next Tuesday in the election of 80 state committee representatives. Has the Governor helped or hurt the Republican Party in Massachusetts?
