Republican U.S. House candidate Scott Walker formally renounced by Delaware GOP

The Delaware GOP’s executive committee voted Thursday night to renounce Scott Walker – one day after the Republican nominee for U.S. House went on an explosive Facebook tirade.

This week’s unanimous censure from the committee is intended to make it clear the party will not be providing any financial backing or other support to the 67-year-old Milford resident, who shocked the state by winning the Sept. 6 Republican primary.

The party’s public rejection of Walker comes at the end of a difficult week for Republican leaders.

A resignation email from the New Castle County Committee chairman that became public Wednesday attacked the integrity and character of Sussex County Councilman Rob Arlett, the party’s candidate for the U.S. Senate. Arlett's campaign also responded to that attack Friday.

Hours later, Walker unleashed a social media rant in which he called incumbent U.S. Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester an “Aunt Tom,” accused the state’s top Democratic officials of being racist and referred to feminism as “an assault against people of color.”
