CAMPAIGN NAMES WOMEN FOR MCCAIN STEERING COMMITTEE
McCain Organization Continues To Grow In New Hampshire
ARLINGTON, VA - U.S. Senator John McCain's presidential campaign today announced the names of the New Hampshire "Women for McCain" steering committee who will be working to engage and enlist women across the state in support of the Arizona Senator.
Senator McCain and his wife Cindy applaud the increasing role of women in elected office and American politics and believe this group will be instrumental in growing the campaign's outreach efforts and winning increased support from New Hampshire women.
"Now more than ever, America needs strong leadership," said Mary Lyons, a member of the New Hampshire "Women for McCain" steering committee from Portsmouth. "And I have never seen John McCain back down from dealing with tough issues."
"I'm supporting John McCain because I believe he is the most knowledgeable candidate on how to handle the Iraq war and will put our nation's safety first," said Jayne Millerick of Bow. "He has sacrificed for our country and understands the military and foreign affairs better than anyone else in the race."
The New Hampshire "Women for McCain" coalition will focus on building a grassroots team to help Senator McCain win the first-in-the-nation primary. "We're committed to impacting this election and we will have the most organized get-out-the-vote effort in state history," said Karen Cervantes of Lebanon.
Senator John McCain expressed his appreciation for the efforts of the New Hampshire "Women for McCain" coalition. "I am grateful to have the support of these women who are all actively engaged in their communities," said Senator McCain. "My wife Cindy and I will continue to reach out to women who want to create change in this country."
