MITT ROMNEY ANNOUNCES SUPPORT OF CALIFORNIA
CONGRESSMAN JEFF DENHAM
Boston, MA – Mitt Romney today
announced California Congressman Jeff Denham as a Statewide Co-Chair.
“My
support is growing in California because voters want a change of
direction in Washington,” said Mitt Romney. “With the help of leaders
like Congressman Denham, we can fix our economy, stop runaway spending,
and restore America’s promise.”
“In
order to defeat President Obama, repeal Obamacare, and stop reckless
spending, we need a proven conservative leader as our nominee,” said
Congressman Denham. “Throughout this campaign and throughout his life,
Mitt Romney has demonstrated that he has that leadership ability. He
was a successful businessman, saved the Olympics from scandal, and
balanced his state’s budget without raising taxes. Mitt Romney’s
economic plan is just what the country needs to free the private sector
and create jobs. It is time for Republicans to unite behind Mitt Romney
– he is the candidate best prepared to lead our party and lead the
country.”
Background
