There’s no change at the top of the Sarasota County Republican Party. Joe Gruters was elected Thursday to a fifth two-year term as chairman without opposition. It’s the latest accomplishment in a big year for Gruters, who won a seat in the state House, served as co-chairman of Donald Trump’s Florida campaign and saw Republicans take a number of races in Sarasota County. Gruters said he debated whether to seek another term as GOP chair but told the Herald-Tribune it’s part of his life and he’s–quote–“committed to the cause.”
