Michigan Republican Party co-chair Malinda Pego has joined an effort to unseat her former running mate, co-chair Kristina Karamo.
The move comes as the state party faces financial troubles and internal division, the Detroit News reported.
In a 400-word email on Friday, Pego revealed she would sign a petition "to support a meeting for discussions of removal of our chair of the Michigan Republican state committee."
Pego's email did not mention Karamo by name.
"Due to a series of decisions and actions, there is a growing consensus among party members that a thorough review of the chair's position is both necessary and appropriate," she wrote in the email. "We need to make decisions that resonate with the sentiments of our delegates and every Republican voter in Michigan."

Karamo became the leader of the Michigan GOP after losing a bid for secretary of state despite an endorsement from former President Donald Trump.
Pego is not the first supporter to turn on Karamo.
Just days earlier, state committee member Dawn Beattie apologized for her role in getting Karamo elected.
"If I would have known that Kristina Karamo would have turned out to be such a tyrannical incompetent dumpster fire I would never have worked so hard to get her elected," Beattie wrote in an email. "For that I apologize."
