Delaware Senate Minority Leader Gary
Simpson to Endorse Newt Gingrich for President
Millsboro, DE - Delaware Senate
Minority Leader Gary Simpson has announed he will endorse Newt Gingrich
for president at a rally this evening in Millsboro, Delaware.
Simpson has served as Senator of the
18th Legislative District of Delaware since 1999 and he currently
serves as Senate Minority Leader. After speaking with Gingrich, Simpson
released the following statement:
"The 2012 election represents one of the
most important events in the history of this country. I believe Newt
Gingrich is the only candidate who can defeat Barack Obama in the fall,
and provide solutions to some of the country's biggest problems, which
are also some of the same problems that Delaware voters are facing on a
daily basis. It is imperative for Republicans in Delaware and beyond to
rally behind a conservative candidate who is capable of handling the
most serious of issues. Newt Gingrich has proven he is the strongest
candidate among the conservative Republicans running for president. I
look forward to helping Newt achieve a victory for all Americans who
want to put our country back on the right track.”
Newt Gingrich expressed his gratitude
for Senator Simpson's support. “I am honored to have the support of
such a strong leader in Delaware. Callista and I are grateful for his
endorsement and confidence in my candidacy,” the Speaker remarked. “We
look forward to meeting and working with other residents of Delaware on
the issues that matter most to them."
Gingrich is campaigning in Delaware
today ahead of the April 24th primary. The rally this evening will be
held at 7pm at the Millsboro Fire Hall at 109 East State Street.
