After two months on job, new McKee campaign manager departs

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WLNE) — Governor McKee’s campaign manager is leaving after just a few months on the job.

Rob Silverstein joined the campaign in June, with the governor touting his track record of working for New York Governor Kathy Hochul and helping with several congressional races last year.

McKee campaign staffer Mike Trainor released a statement on the departure:

The McKee campaign and Rob Silverstein have mutually agreed to part ways. Both sides wish each other well. The governor remains focused on serving the people of Rhode Island and continuing to run a strong reelection campaign to keep delivering results for working families.
