What they are saying.... |
| |
James Laatsch, Former 47th District Representative: "Tim McCumber stands head and shoulders above the other candidates in the 47th Assembly District race. Now, with Gene Hahn's pending retirement, . . . Tim is the . . . successor with real potential." |
| |
Doug Fearing, Past Chairman of the Columbia County GOP: "I have known Tim for nearly 20 years, and I think he will do an outstanding job for us in Madison. . . Knowing Tim as I do, I can assure you that if elected Tim will not merely report for duty, but rather will be determined to make a real impact and insure that the policy decisions being made on our behalf are truly in our best interest." |
| |
Patricia Carignan, Sauk County Treasurer: "One of the things that I think sets Tim apart from the pack is his hands-on role in local government. That experience has allowed Tim to bring intelligent discussions on CARPC (the Capital Area Regional Planning Commission), annexation and zoning, and property taxes to the campaign. And, as Sauk County Treasurer, I can tell when some know those issues and when they don't". |
| |
Eric West, Past Chairman of the Republican Party of Dane County: "This candidate has an impressive resume, governmental experience, is a leader in his community and has shown a very sound understanding of the issues facing Dane County, the 47th Assembly District and the State of Wisconsin. For all of these reasons, and more, I proudly and enthusiastically support and endorse Tim McCumber in the Republican primary for the 47th Assembly District seat." |

Bonnie Pfaff, Chair, Wisconsin Right to Life Political Action Committee: We deeply appreciate your support for the initiatives that would enhance the sanctity of human life. This attests to your strong commitment to build a culture of life where the lives of every member of the human family is cherished and respected. We believe your election to the state legislature will do much to further the right-to-life cause." |
| |
Richard Grant, Town of Merrimac Chairman: "I would like to publicly thank our Town of Merrimac Administrator Tim McCumber for. . . his work ethic and dedication to getting the job done. I urge you to vote for him in the upcoming primary, as I am sure that he will show the same initiative in the assembly . . ." |
