Former Brown Aide Chosen to Head State GOP
Kristen Hughes worked as Sen. Scott Brown's deputy finance chairman.
Kristen Hughes, the former deputy finance chairman for the Sen. Scott Brown campaign, won a narrow vote to become the new chairwoman of the Massachusetts Republican Party, according to Boston.com.
Hughes, 35, will replace outgoing chairman Robert A. Maginn, Jr. Before joining Brown's campaign – and becoming his choice to lead the GOP through the upcoming election cycle – Hughes worked as a Quincy city councilor.
As Brown's aide, she helped raise $42 million. Her win Thursday was seen by some as a important to avoid Brown from looking weak in the face of another possible run for the U.S. Senate, the Globe reported.
"I am ready to head to [the GOP headquarters] tomorrow morning to get to work without delay," Hughes said, according to Boston.com. "How we do in these special elections will have a direct impact on our ability to motivate the grassroots and raise funds for the 2014 cycle and beyond."

And a shameful chapeter in the history of the MassGOP it has already proven to be.
The very next day Scott Brown bowed out [ending his career] - and so far the list of 'Republicans' who won't run includes Weld, Muffy, Tagg Romney, Evangelidis, and others... And Hughes doesn't know what to do or who to call.
Still proud of your vote Peter Dulchinos?
