Illinois GOP revokes delegates credentials for racist FB post
CLEVELAND The Illinois Republican Party on Wednesday revoked the convention credentials of a Donald Trump delegate from Chicago for publicly-made racist comments and threats of violence on a Facebook posting.
Illinois Republican Party Chairman Tim Schneider told the Sun-Times the party, has zero tolerance for racism of any kind and threats of violence against anyone.
The executive committee of the Illinois GOP party made the decision regarding Fifth Congressional District delegate Lori Gayne after party officials said she confirmed to them she was the author of the offending post, made under a different name.
Gayne was elected a Trump delegate in the March Illinois Republican Primary from the North Side district.
