Eaton steps down as Brooklyn GOP chairman
Party’s new leader is Arnaldo Ferraro
There is a changing of the guard in Republican Party politics in Brooklyn.
In a surprise move, Craig Eaton, a Bay Ridge lawyer who had served as chairman of the Kings County Republican Party since 2007, stepped down and announced his support for his vice chairman, Dr. Arnaldo Ferraro, a retired educator from Bensonhurst, to take his place.
Eaton made his announcement at the party’s meeting on Sept. 30. The meeting was held to elect a party chairman. The news of Eaton’s departure was first reported by KingsCountyPolitics.com.
