GOP faith ambassador quits, complains of priorities of RNC

A frustrated Connelly highlighted the importance of the nation’s faith community in the email that criticized several RNC officials by name.

“Pastors and faith leaders and people sitting in pews are THE key element in winning elections. An increase in church engagement of only a few percentage points is often the difference in victory and defeat,” Connelly wrote. “We have learned and re-learned those lessons and unfortunately, it appears that your political department would want us to learn it again.”
