ALABAMA REPRESENTATIVES JOIN TEAM MCCAIN
Ball, Drake and Faust Stand With Arizona Senator
ARLINGTON, VA – U.S. Senator John McCain’s presidential exploratory committee today announced three Republican members of the Alabama House of Representatives added their names to the list of supporters backing the Arizona Senator’s exploratory committee in the state.
Rep. Mike Ball of Huntsville, Rep. Owen Drake of Leeds, and Rep. Joe Faust of Fairhope said Senator McCain’s common sense conservative approach to the issues facing our nation led them to make the decision.
“In my opinion, John McCain understands the importance of military infrastructure and technological research to our state,” Rep. Ball said. “Huntsville needs a strong Republican who understands military issues in the White House and I believe that man is John McCain.”
“John McCain spent his military career protecting the men and women of our nation and being tested as few men are,” Drake said. “As a fellow veteran, I will be proud to support John McCain.”
“John McCain is the only true Ronald Reagan Republican running for president,” Faust said. “He shares our conservative Alabama values and I believe his record in public service is one the citizens of our state can support.”
Senator John McCain said he appreciated the support of these elected officials. “These three men are from very different, very diverse parts of Alabama and I appreciate that they’ve come together to support me,” McCain said. “They are dedicated public servants and I deeply appreciate their words of encouragement.”
