Under Graham the “Conservative Cause Moved Forward” to “Make Great Gains in State and Nation”

PHOENIX – Arizona Republican Party Chairman Robert Graham today announced receiving additional endorsements from former Secretary of State Ken Bennett and State of Arizona Treasurer Jeff DeWit who are supporting his re-election as Chairman of the Arizona Republican Party.

Casey Jones, Chairman of the Cochise County Republican Committee, also endorsed Graham and was joined by two AZGOP Coalition Chairmen: Barry Wong, Chairman of the Asian American Coalition (Wong is also an elected AZGOP Member-at-Large in CD 7) and Clyde Bowen, Chairman of the Arizona American African Republican Committee. Judy Alexander, President of the Cobre Valley Republican Club also announced the club voted unanimously to endorse Graham for a second term.

“I had the privilege of serving our state these past years in legislative leadership and as the Secretary of State. As a life long Republican, and a current precinct committeeman and district chair, I understand the role that our state party can play in helping the party have current data, and a strong organization around the state. Under Chairman Robert Graham’s leadership, the conservative cause has moved forward and our state party has been strengthened. Robert has my support to serve another term,” said Ken Bennett, former Arizona Secretary of State and newly-elected Chairman of the Legislative District 24 Republican Committee.

“During my campaign, I tirelessly traveled to every corner of Arizona talking to voters about my Constitutional Conservative values and listening to what was important to them. Often, even in the furthest parts of our state, I saw Chairman Robert Graham and was impressed by how hard he was working to build the party. I am excited to serve Arizona and work with him in the coming years as we help the Conservative movement make great gains in our state and nation,” said State of Arizona Treasurer Jeff DeWit.

PHOENIX – Robert Graham today announced he has received the endorsement of Irene Littleton, a former State Senate candidate who was recently elected Chairman of the Pinal County Republican Committee. Pinal County’s District 4 GOP Chairman Vince Manfredi and newly-elected Constable John Acton also endorsed Graham. Graham is running for a second term as Chairman of the Arizona Republican Party and is actively campaigning in an election to be held at the biennial meeting of the State Committee on January 24, 2015 at the Grace Community Church in Tempe.

“I worked with Robert when I was a candidate for State Senate from LD8. Robert was always there for me. His office provided flyers as well as phone calls for me. Any time I needed his advise, he was there. I got to know Robert during my campaign and believe Robert has the best interest of the Republican Party in Arizona in mind at all times. I endorse Robert for Chairman of the AZGOP and, as Chairman of the Pinal County Republican Committee, I look forward to working with him and his staff for the 2016 elections,” said Chairman Irene Littleton of the Pinal County Republican Committee.

Vince Manfredi, Chairman of the Legislative District 4 Republican Committee in Pinal County, said, “Robert has done an excellent job as chairman. And I look forward to the next two years we take back the White House. Without his help here in Pinal County there’s no way we make the impact we did.”

John Acton, the newly-elected Constable for Pinal County’s District 7, said, “Thank you, Robert, for your help and guidance with my campaign, you have my full endorsement.”

Pinal County is Arizona’s third largest county by population and is home to more than 50,000 Republican voters.

Endorsements

PHOENIX – Today Robert Graham released a second round of endorsements from elected Republican Party leaders in Maricopa, Graham, Gila and Coconino counties. Graham seeks a second term as Chairman of the Arizona Republican Party and is actively campaigning in an election to be held at the biennial meeting of the State Committee on January 24, 2015 at the Grace Community Church in Tempe.

“Robert Graham has done an excellent job as Chairman of the Arizona Republican Party, with Republicans being elected to all statewide positions. It is my honor and pleasure to endorse Robert Graham for reelection as Chairman of the Arizona Republican Party,” said Ian Murray, Chairman of the Legislative District 25 Republican Committee.

“Robert, after working with you the last two years, I feel that what you have accomplished and your leadership leaves me no choice but to give my endorsement of you for Arizona Republican Party Chairman. Therefore as Graham County Republican Chairman, I give you my full endorsement for reelection as Arizona Republican Party Chair, 2014- 2016 election cycle. Keep up the fundraising and electing Republicans to our state and federal offices!” said John Rhodes, Chairman of the Graham County Republican Party.

“I support Robert Graham for reelection as AZGOP Chairman. Robert deserves a second term. He has been accessible and responsive to me as Chairman of Coconino County Republicans. He has tried to engage the entire state, and not just the great state of Maricopa! He has committed to having a debriefing meeting with his County and LD Chairs to see what went right and what went wrong. I don’t recall that happening in the past. He has worked hard to try and energize and engage the state while raising money to fund campaign efforts. There is always room for improvement. 2016 will be an extremely important election year. We need experience and dedication. I believe we have that in Robert Graham,” said Joy Staveley, Chairman of the Coconino County Republican Committee.

Earlier this month Graham received the endorsement of Gila County Republican Committee Chairman Gary Morris, and today received the endorsements of additional longtime Gila County Republican leaders Don Ascoli, Sam Moorhead, and Shirley Dye.
