Republicans report unrest in county

At least two Republican delegates in Baltimore County said their party leader encouraged political newcomers to challenge them, indicating internal unrest in what is considered a voter battleground for the gubernatorial election.

District 5 Delegate Wade Kach said he wants to replace Chris Cavey, current chairman of the county?s GOP central committee, because he didn?t recruit Republican candidates for top spots like county executive until the last minute. Meanwhile, District 7 Delegate Pat McDonogh said he supports Kach because Cavey recruited Republicans to run against like-party incumbents.
