RNC Backtracks Plan To Hire Election Activist Scott Presler

Last week Lara Trump was excited to announce that Scott Presler would be joining the RNC as the Lead Legal Ballot Chasing Operations.

Presler been making a name for himself online with his consistent recruiting of voters to the Republican party.

He may be the most active election activist I’ve ever seen.

But then 5 days after Lara Trump’s announcement, the RNC has pulled back their offer.

Last week:

Today:

 

NBC News reports:

The Republican National Committee said Tuesday that it will not be hiring conservative activist Scott Presler, who has a large online following..

Presler was director for a group critical of Islam that organized “March Against Sharia” protests and helped plan “stop the steal” rallies ahead of Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

RNC co-chair Lara Trump, the daughter-in-law of former President Donald Trump, said last week that she was interested in hiring Presler.

“I’m going to have a call very soon with Scott Presler who … has registered so many people in this country. I think he’s fantastic. I want him on our legal ballot harvesting division,” she told conservative commentator Benny Johnson.

Presler, who chaired a group called Gays for Trump, has gained a national following among the GOP’s conservative right flank as an organizer and social media personality with a specific focus on registering Republicans to vote. He has amassed 1.5 million followers on X and helped lead voter registration and get-out-the-vote training sessions for conservative groups.

An RNC spokesperson said Presler will be a “valuable voice to the RNC” but will not become a direct employee as he “remains focused on his nonprofit.” Presler runs an organization called Early Vote Action that was founded to “organize & mobilize Republicans to vote early.”

In a statement to NBC News, Lara Trump praised his work with the Republican Party’s grassroots base.

“Scott Presler has shown what a single individual can accomplish when it comes to activating voters across the country,” she said. “I look forward to having his support as both of our organizations share the same goal of getting our friends and neighbors out to vote in this crucial election.”

Presler, who has appeared on Donald Trump Jr.’s podcast, did not return a request seeking comment.

Here’s Scott giving tips on how to reach out to voters:
