RoM – Jamie Franks vs Barbara Blackmon
Chairman Jamie Franks says everything that happened at the meeting is null and void and orchestrated by a “rogue, radical group.” He says Sam Hall is executive director and Ike Brown is not on the committee.
Vice-Chairman Barbara Blackmon says the meeting was legal and binding. She says Sam Hall never was executive director and that while she is not a supporter of Ike Brown, he is on the committee.
WLBT covered it on their 5pm and 6pm reports today.
Chairman Jamie Franks takes a direct shot at his Vice Chairman, “We’re supposed to be the party of the big tent, not the party of Barbara Blackmon and Ike Brown.”
