Speaker Straus subtly spikes the football
“Once again, Republican primary voters have shown overwhelming support for responsible candidates who will put their communities first”
Surveying
the landscape, the retiring presiding officer issued this statement:
"I
want to congratulate the candidates who won their runoffs tonight and will now
head to the general election in November. They have worked hard and sacrificed
much to earn these victories. Once again, Republican primary voters have shown
overwhelming support for responsible candidates who will put their communities
first and take a serious approach to the state's challenges. The results in
these runoffs and in the March primaries clearly
demonstrate that Republican voters want constructive and pragmatic leadership
for our fast-growing state."
