Tennessee Republican Party Chair Ryan Haynes plans to leave his post later this year, capping an 18-month tenure that saw criticism of his leadership despite continued GOP gains at the statehouse, the Tennessee reports. “It was an awesome challenge and I am honored we have taken the party to a place where we have more Republicans elected in Tennessee than ever before,” Haynes told the paper. He says he plans to move to the private sector and spend more time in Knox County. Haynes was elected chair in April of 2015 after leaving his seat in the statehouse.
