Former CRNC Chairman Scott G. Stewart has officially left politics and has taken a job with Shell Oil in the Western United States.
Stewart was previusly working for the Department of Interior in Washington. He was CRNC National Chairman from 1999-2003, where he became close friends with another former CRNC chairman—Jack Abramoff.
Stewart’s chairmanship was highly controversial. The organization began a full time field program, raised more money, and became more legitimate. But, in 2001, three women “accused him of harassing female colleagues and using party funds to pay for cell phone bills and other personal expenses.” The RNC “hired an outside law firm to investigate. The firm found that Stewart’s actions did not meet the legal definition of sexual harassment, but the firm’s report states his conduct was ‘unprofessional and inappropriate for a work setting.’” [Source – Las Vegas Review Journal]
