RELEASE: Mitt Romney Announces New Jersey Endorsements
Today, Mitt Romney’s Free and Strong America PAC announced the endorsement of the following New Jersey candidates:
Congressman Leonard Lance: Leonard Lance currently represents the 7th Congressional District of New Jersey and is running for reelection. For more information about him and his campaign, visit www.lanceforcongress.com.
Mayor Anna Little: Anna Little currently serves as the Mayor of the Borough of Highlands, New Jersey and is now running to represent New Jersey’s 6th Congressional District. For more information about her and her campaign, visit www.annalittleforcongress.com.
Jon Runyan: Jon Runyan, a former professional football player, is now running to represent New Jersey’s 3rd Congressional District. For more information about him and his campaign, visit www.runyanforcongress.com.
Scott Sipprelle: Scott Sipprelle, a successful businessman, is now running to represent the 12th Congressional District of New Jersey. For more information about him and his campaign, visit www.supportscott2010.com.
The PAC also announced that is sending Lance, Little, Runyan, and Sipprelle each a $2,500 contribution toward their respective Congressional campaigns.
“Rather than working to enact policies that will restore our economy and put people back to work, too many of our elected officials are instead enacting policies that are stalling our economic recovery. New Jersey – and our nation – needs leaders like Lance, Little, Runyan, and Sipprelle who will stand up to the Washington culture of higher spending, higher taxes, and higher debt, and focus on turning our economy around,” 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, Virginia, Florida, North Dakota, South Carolina, Utah, and South Dakota.
