From the Star Trib:
Seeking to win back the state House this November, Minnesota Republicans are working to unite their factions and end the civil war within the party. But it's unclear if such unity can be achieved in today's GOP, where right-wing activists galvanized by Donald Trump's presidency are trying to seize power from veteran Republicans they say aren't conservative enough.
Activists involved with their county Republican chapters are increasingly challenging state GOP leaders, and anti-establishment groups continue to encourage intraparty battles.
In December, a contingent of state GOP activists unsuccessfully attempted to remove Hann as the party's leader with no specific successor in mind. They cited U.S. House Republicans' unprecedented removal of Speaker Kevin McCarthy as their inspiration.
GOP activists spose with their fearless leader
