Republican Leaders and Activists Across Iowa Endorse Carly Fiorina for President

Members to Comprise Carly Fiorina Leadership Committee in Iowa

DES MOINES, IA – In a testament to Carly Fiorina's growing momentum in Iowa, Republican leaders and activists are joining together in support of her candidacy for president. From business leaders to grassroots activists to elected officials, Carly Fiorina is proving that her conservative outsider message is resonating with Republicans across Iowa. These leaders are part of a growing group of prominent citizens comprising an Iowa leadership team.

 

“Carly is incredibly articulate,” said Cathy Grawe of Coralville. “Her message has been sorely missed from the GOP stage in the last several presidential elections.”

 

“She’s got the boldness necessary to bring the fight to Hillary. I believe she’s going to go all the way to the White House. I am excited to be a part of her team.” said Pleasant Hill Mayor Sara Kurovski.

 

“Iowa loves Carly Fiorina. She’s the clearly the best candidate,” said former Rep. Steve Olson (R-DeWitt). “I appreciate that Carly articulates policies that get the government out of picking winners and losers. Our country’s businesses need to be the best, we need to push them to compete on the global level – they can’t do that as long as Washington is subsidizing, and thus incentivizing them, to stay at the status quo.”

 

“I have been continually impressed by Carly’s ability to lead. The more I learn about her tenure at Hewlett-Packard, her experience in the non-profit sector and her compelling life story, the more sure I am that she’s the leader the GOP needs to win,” said Wendell Steven of Lakota.

 

“Carly’s honest. It’s as simple as that,” said Donna Steven of Lakota. “She speaks clearly, intelligently and I trust her. I am glad to join a team dedicated to getting her into the White House.”

 

“Carly’s clear vision for the future is exactly what our country needs,” said  Dr. Rob White. “Now, more than ever, we need her leadership in the White House.”

 

“We are thrilled to have the dedicated support of this leadership team in Iowa,” said CARLY for America Iowa State Director Mary Earnhardt. “There is no doubt that Carly Fiorina has what it takes to lead this country. Iowa has received her message very warmly, and we are excited to see enthusiasm grow for Carly and her credentials as more and more people hear what she has to say. No other candidate speaks with as much conviction, clarity or compassion than Carly Fiorina.”
