Top Black Staffers Leave The Republican National Committee

The Republican National Committee is losing the person who leads the GOP's outreach to black communities, as first reported by NBC News and confirmed by The Huffington Post.  

Kristal Quarker-Hartsfield, the national director of African-American Initiatives at the RNC, is leaving the organization to work for Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) as his director of intergovernmental affairs. Her last day is set to be Friday, and she is the second black top staffer to depart the RNC this month.
