Mitt Romney Announces Additional Nevada Endorsements
Today, Mitt Romney’s Free and Strong America PAC announced the endorsement of a second wave of Nevada candidates:
Brian Sandoval: Brian Sandoval formerly served as a federal judge and Nevada Attorney General, and is now running to become Nevada’s next Governor.
Sharron Angle: Sharron Angle, a former Nevada State Assemblywoman, is now running for U.S. Senate in Nevada.
The PAC also announced that is sending Sharron Angle the maximum $5,000 contribution toward her Senate campaign.
“Instead of focusing on turning our economy around and fostering job creation and economic growth, too many of our leaders are instead focused on growing the size of government. That is why Nevada is fortunate to have leaders like Brian Sandoval and Sharron Angle, who will work to get our economy back on track,” said Romney.
These endorsements are another in a series of state rollouts of the PAC’s 2010 endorsements, which are aimed at electing conservative candidates who will work to lower taxes and spending, restore commonsense principles to healthcare and get our economy moving again. As part of this program, Romney’s PAC also has announced endorsements in Ohio, Missouri, California, Pennsylvania, Hawaii, Nevada, Illinois, Georgia, Texas, Indiana, Idaho, New Mexico, and Virginia.
This is the second wave of Nevada endorsements announced this year by the PAC. The PAC has previously endorsed the following Nevada candidates:
Lieutenant Governor Brian Krolicki, who won last night’s primary election, and is running for reelection;
Congressman Dean Heller, who won last night’s primary election, and is running for reelection in Nevada’s 2nd Congressional District; and
Dr. Joe Heck, who won last night’s primary election, and is running to represent Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District.
