(Cleveland, OH) -- Washington State Republican Party Chair Susan Hutchison says Texas Senator Ted Cruz is a traitor to the party for not endorsing Donald Trump at the Republican National Convention. Cruz was met by a chorus of boos from the crowd of conventioneers yesterday, after he urged them to follow their conscience and "unite behind shared principals." Cruz dropped out of the presidential race after trading an almost daily barrage of barbs with Trump, who continued to earn primary victories leading to his nomination.
