American Reform Party Endorses Russ Diamond Jul. 10, 2006 Source: RussDiamond.org The American Reform Party (ARP) has endorsed Independent Russ Diamond for Governor of Pennsylvania. The endorsement, conferred by the national ARP leadership, was jointly announced by the Diamond campaign and the ARP today. "We are pleased to endorse Russ," said Bettyjean Kling, the ARP's National Secretary and coordinator of ARP efforts in Pennsylvania. "His efforts with PACleanSweep clearly indicate his dedication to reform. The ARP views Pennsylvania as a model for other citizen-led movements that must take place in every state of the country." Ms. Kling resides in Shippensburg, PA, and has been a follower of PACleanSweep since its inception. "I am honored by this endorsement," said Diamond. "Reforming government in Pennsylvania and restoring honor, dignity and integrity to Harrisburg is my number one priority, and I’m pleased to be joined in this effort by the American Reform Party. They understand that a real reformer proves himself with a track record of action, not by naming a bus." Diamond is running for Governor of Pennsylvania as an Independent. In order to obtain ballot access, Diamond must gather 67,070 signatures from registered voters by the end of July. His Democratic and Republican rivals were only required to gather 2,000 signatures each. Related Articles Independent Candidate Enters Pennsylvania Gubernatorial Race - Apr. 13, 2006 |
