"The Vermont Republican Party (VTGOP) has an opportunity to help move our state forward and unite Vermonters through reforms that will make Vermont more affordable, create more and better-paying jobs and improve our quality of life.’ ‘
"David Sunderland shares these principles and understands what it takes to build consensus and win elections.’ That’s why I am supporting him in his candidacy to be the next chairman of the VTGOP.
"David can unify the party and position us to succeed in 2014 so we can restore balance in Montpelier.’ He’s a husband and father of four, former member of the Vermont House of Representatives and is well respected by those of us who have worked with him in the Legislature.’ He is a respectful and effective voice of reason and will help the VTGOP provide an example of Republican politics that unites people -’ those who share a common concern for the future of our state, the strength of our economy and the overall cost of living in Vermont.
"David is the right person to unify the VTGOP and expand our coalition.’ I encourage my fellow Republicans to join me in supporting him as the next chairman of our party."
