She was criticized for failing to get-out-the-vote with any meaningful [[grassroots]] effort in November 2022, resulting in disappointing election outcomes for the [[Republican Party]].  The perception of "business as usual" by McDaniel against sophisticated [[ballot harvesting]] by [[Dems]] led to a spirited, and nearly successful, effort by outsider Harmeet Dhillon to pull a surprise upset against McDaniel's reelection.  The continued reliance by archaic [[Republican National Committee]] leadership on high-paid consultants, television advertising without effect, meaningless [[Fox News Channel]] appearances, and a lack of real "boots on the ground" is frustrating many [[conservatives]].
