The Chair of District 9 Republicans says she is taking legal action against a Facebook personality known as “Politidick.”

Carol Carman, a conservative in D-9, has been Chair of the distict since 2016, reelected in 2018 and 2020. But this year, Politidick decided to try to force her out of her chair. She says has been accused on Facebook of illegal activity and that Politidick has been running a harassment campaign against her and her family.

Carman has asked Politidick to cease harassing her multiple times but the response has been threats, she said.

Carman started a GoFundMe page to help her with legal fees. She would not reveal all the problems she has had with the harassment, but says that the original harassment page on Facebook that was started against her was removed, evidently by Facebook, but that other harassment has continued, including personal messages.
