Rumors have been running rampant in recent days that Hamilton County Republican Party Chairman Pete Emigh will be stepping down.  Word is he is ready to move on.

Look for an official announcement in a day or two.

The next big question is – who will succeed Chairman Emigh?  There will likely be a number of candidates.  It appears there will be at least one hat in the ring from Fishers.

Current County GOP Party Treasurer and Fishers City Council President  Pete Peterson is expected to be in the running for the county party’s top job.

It will be interesting to see how the Hamilton County Republican Party leadership decision comes out in the end.
