Mecklenburg County Republicans will elect a new chairman Saturday. But the best-known candidate has dropped out.
Jeff Katz, the conservative talk show host fired in December by WBT radio, had expressed interest in the job but has pulled out, according to current chairman Lee Teague.
His departure leaves Chris Emmanuel and Rob Bryan vying for the party's top spot.
Nearly 400 people have registered for the convention, which will be held Saturday morning at Butler High School.
