Tennessee Democratic Party Chairman Randy Button said Tuesday he is resigning as chairman to return to the real estate business.
He said, “My term as the chairman of the Tennessee Democratic Party has been a tremendous experience. I would like to thank Gov. Bredesen for this incredible opportunity, my staff for all of their hard work, and all of the great Democrats across this state that have supported me during my tenure. Although I am sad to see this period of service end, it does not conclude my desire to continue to work on behalf of the Democratic Party.
"With the continued leadership of Governor Phil Bredesen, the state Democratic Party has a secure and promising future. Jackson Day 2005 was the most successful event in the history of the state party. I believe that the turnout of support was a testament to the kind of unification that the Democratic Party is enjoying in this state.”
A new chairman will be elected at the state’s Executive Committee meeting scheduled for June 18 of this year.
