GUARDIAN STILL

Quick update: Kathy Miller, discussed below, has resigned from her volunteer gig as the chair of Donald Trump's campaign in Mahoning County.

“My personal comments were inappropriate, and I apologize," she said. "I am not a spokesperson for the campaign and was not speaking on its behalf. I have resigned as the volunteer campaign chair in Mahoning County and as an elector to the Electoral College to avoid any unnecessary distractions.”

She still stood by her assertion that racism didn't exist before President Obama took office.
