Credibility Matters: Parralee Receives Endorsement of AZGOP Chairman Robert Graham

The old expression "If it's not broke, don't fix it" comes to mind with the following endorsement of Parralee Schneider, running for First Vice Chair of the Arizona Republican Party, by Arizona Republican Party Chairman Robert Graham:

"Parralee has served honorably and we have been blessed with success. Parralee is a wonderful person, a grassroots activist, and has served on our board for the past 8 years. She has seen the strengths and weaknesses of 3 chairman up close and personal. She has been a part of our successes as she serves and represents you with honor," Graham said.

"Parralee is also from Southern Arizona. I can't overestimate southern Arizona's value to our statewide efforts. In this past election, Southern Arizona gave us our new majority in the US House with the defeat of Ron Barber. Parralee was instrumental in this win. Pima County outperformed Maricopa County in the election of Diane Douglas, contributing to her well-fought victory. The state board of the AZGOP needs representation with experience. We need representation from ALL around the state, not just Maricopa County. We need Parralee back!

"As a grassroots leader, Parralee is the creator of the Precinct Committeeman Handbook. She knows that PC's make the difference.

"Parralee is also endorsed by our new Speaker of the House David Gowan.

"I wholeheartedly join Speaker Gowan is support of Parralee for reelection to the board of the Arizona Republican Party," concluded Graham.
