Senior Staff Members Step Down From Mark Robinson’s Campaign [Video]

In not-so-surprising news, several senior staff members stepped down from Lt. Governor Mark Robinson’s gubernatorial campaign over the weekend.

As reported by WTVD, the campaign announced on Sunday that senior advisor Conrad Pogorzelski, campaign manager Chris Rodriguez, finance director Heather Whillier, and deputy campaign manager Jason Rizk all stepped down from their positions.
