Conservative Campaign Manager Jenni Byrne Says She Won’t Run Next Campaign

Conservative campaign manager Jenni Byrne says she won’t return to the role in the next federal election, while maintaining it was right not to pivot the party’s messaging toward the U.S. president in the last election campaign.

Byrne said on a podcast called “Beyond a Ballot” released on Aug. 8 that while she is still advising Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre and the party on some policies, “I’ve stepped back from the day-to-day and I’m not going to run the next campaign.”
