Corrin Rankin has been elected as the first Black woman chair of the California Republican Party, marking a significant step for the party. Previously serving as vice chair, she emphasizes her qualifications for leadership and aims to challenge the Democratic majority in California. With a focus on rising crime and living costs, Rankin plans to broaden the party's appeal to voters in pursuit of regaining strength and influence within the state. Her leadership is seen as a response to recent shifting voter demographics favoring the GOP.
"I had the qualifications, I had the experience, and that's why I was elected chair."
"Change is coming to California," Rankin said in remarks after she was elected Sunday.
