Still more top Sangamon County Republicans are calling for Tony Libri to step down as party chairman.
The State Journal-Register reports outgoing state senator Larry Bomke, county treasurer Tom Cavanagh and former Springfield mayor Karen Hasara all say it’s time for Libri to go.
The officials echoed concerns raised by others that Libri’s demeanor and attitude have created problems.
Earlier this week in a live interview on 970 WMAY, Libri insisted he would not be forced from his job and said he still has the support of the majority of precinct committeemen.
