The racist teabagger and GOP official is refusing to resign.
A tea party activist and elected member of the county Republican central committee said she will not heed calls to resign because she emailed a picture of President Barack Obama's face on the body of a chimpanzee.
Marilyn Davenport of Fullerton recently emailed a picture of Obama's face superimposed over a baby chimp's face with the caption, "Now you know why -- No birth certificate!"
O.C. Weekly political blogger R. Scott Moxley reported on the email, causing civil rights activists and some Republicans, including county GOP Chairman Scott Baugh, to call for her to resign from the county central committee.
Baugh told the Los Angeles Times he received the email Friday afternoon and sent a reply email telling Davenport it was "dripping with racism and is in very poor taste."
