Gov.
Rick
Perry’s Jobs and Fiscal Conservatism Message
Earns 27 New Hampshire Lawmaker Endorsements
Legislative
endorsements
triple Mitt Romney’s Granite State support
AUSTIN
– Gov. Rick Perry today announced support from 27 New Hampshire state
representatives, adding to his strong grassroots and conservative
political support in the Granite State.
“Gov. Perry’s record creating the nation’s best pro-jobs environment
and commitment to get America working again is earning strong support
from New Hampshire Republican leaders,” said Perry campaign manager Rob
Johnson. “These 27 New Hampshire legislative endorsements triple the
number of legislative endorsements announced by former Massachusetts
Gov. Mitt Romney last week, and he’s been running for president
continually for four years.”
The following New Hampshire state representatives support Gov. Perry’s
candidacy for President:
Gov. Mitt Romney announced he had gained the support of nine state
representatives last week.
“Gov. Perry has the strongest record of any candidate in the race of
creating an environment ripe for job growth. While Obama has raised
taxes and uncertainty, Gov. Perry has balanced budgets, signed
aggressive tort reform, and worked to keep job-killing burdens off of
employers,” said Rep. Dick Hinch (R-Merrimack), a former supporter of
Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty. “Granite Staters know the country is
on the wrong track. We need a candidate whose record can contrast
clearly with the president’s, and Gov. Perry's record of leadership can
put America on the right track and Americans back to work.”
These endorsements follow previous announcements of support for Gov.
Perry by former U.S. Senator Gordon Humphrey; former U.S. Congressman
Chuck Douglas; and 2010 GOP Gubernatorial nominee John Stephen.
“We are honored to have the support of these men and women who
represent and understand the sentiments of voters across the state,”
said Paul Young, a senior advisor to the Perry campaign in New
Hampshire. “They know that people want more jobs and economic
prosperity, less taxes and government interference, and they recognize
that Gov. Perry can deliver on that promise.”
