Fade To Gray

Gray Sasser has made his departure from the Tennessee Democratic Party official:

Gray Sasser said today he has decided, as many anticipated, against seeking reelection as state Democratic Party chairman and that least three party staff members will be leaving before his term expires in January.

The three are Michael Gass, the party’s technology coordinator; Janet Meek, East Tennessee field director; and Wade Munday, press secretary, Sasser said.

All three held positions with their salaries funded by the Democratic National Committee under a “state partnership” program established by outgoing Democratic National Chairman Howard Dean. The funds run out on Nov. 30.

“We hope that when there’s a new chairman of DNC and a new chairman of the Tennessee Democratic Party, that we will be able to fill those positions again,” said Sasser.
