An outspoken GOP activist and deputy district attorney from California who vehemently opposed vaccine mandates has died of COVID at age 44.
Kelly Ernby, a Republican activist who lived in Huntington Beach, had worked at the Orange County DA’s Office since 2011.
In December, she spoke out against coronavirus vaccine mandates at a Turning Point USA rally at Irvine City Hall.
“There’s nothing that matters more than our freedoms right now,” Ernby said, according to the Daily Titan, a student newspaper that covered the event.
She was memorialized online Monday by friends and colleagues who confirmed her recent death, adding that it was from COVID-19.
Ernby contested for a state assembly seat two years ago, losing in the Republican primary, and was widely expected to try for the seat a second time in 2022.
