Senator McCain Announces West Virginia Leadership
Conservative Leadership Attracts Strong Support For Arizona Senator
ARLINGTON, VA - U.S. Senator John McCain's presidential campaign today announced that twelve influential West Virginia Republicans will advise the Arizona Senator's campaign in the state.
Senator McCain's campaign advisory committee in West Virginia will include former state Delegate and Republican Minority Leader Larry Swann, former state Republican Party Chairman David Tyson, Senate Minority Whip Clark Barnes, state Senator Mike Hall, state Delegate Tom Azinger, state Delegate Daryl Cowles, state Delegate Thomas Mike Porter, state Delegate Jeffery Tansill, state Delegate William R. Romine, former state Senator Sarah Minear, Adjutant Miles Epling of the West Virginia American Legion, and prominent local attorney Mark Carter.
The members will use their combined years of experience and understanding of West Virginia's political landscape to provide leadership to Senator McCain's campaign.
"Senator McCain is a conservative leader who is serious about ensuring America's future is prosperous and secure," said Swann. "Whether you're a sportsman, taxpayer, or traditional, family-oriented American, John McCain's record of strength on the issues is very appealing."
"Too many times voters are forced to choose between strength of character and strength of record, but West Virginia has both in John McCain," Tyson said. "Aside from staring down adversity on the battlefield, Senator McCain is the only reliable protector of our freedoms, rights, and culture of life."
Senator John McCain stated that he was proud to receive the support of these West Virginia Republicans. "These leaders have been trusted advocates for important conservative ideas in West Virginia and I am encouraged by their support," said Senator McCain. "I value their advice as we move toward a new chapter in our country's history and work to meet the challenges of tomorrow."
