MITT ROMNEY ANNOUNCES SUPPORT OF IDAHO ELECTED OFFICIALS
 
Boston, MA – Mitt Romney today announced the support of additional Idaho elected officials.
 
“It’s an honor to have the support of so many conservative Idaho leaders,” said Mitt Romney. “This level of support shows that my message of restoring fiscal sanity to Washington is resonating with voters across the country. These supporters will be crucial in helping me spread my message of creating jobs and cutting spending in the months to come.” 
 
“It is an honor to announce these additions to Mitt Romney’s growing team in Idaho,” said Governor Butch Otter. “These last three years have seen unacceptably high unemployment and home values that have fallen, all while the middle class is getting crushed. We need someone who will restore fiscal sanity to the federal government so that we can create jobs and get our country back on track. Mitt Romney is that man and I urge Idaho voters to join me in standing with him.”
