In a statement today, Carly Fiorina announced that she had received the endorsement of Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Here’s the full statement:
“California needs a representative in the U.S. Senate who is prepared to make the tough decisions necessary to address our most pressing challenges, including job creation and national security. Based on my personal experience, I know Carly is the best person to send to Washington to advocate for the people of our great state in the Senate,” said Rice. “Carly is an experienced and respected leader who has delivered results for those she has served in the midst of immense challenges. I am proud to endorse her today.”
“I had the privilege to work with Secretary Rice when I served on the State Department’s Advisory Committee on Transformational Diplomacy, and I have great respect for her. I am even more honored to have her support behind my campaign for U.S. Senate,” said Fiorina. “Given the national security challenges our country faces, it’s critically important that our representatives in the U.S. Senate stand up to protect our fellow Americans, as well as our allies across the globe. Barbara Boxer has instead put her own political priorities ahead of the safety and security of our country, and it’s time to replace her this November.”
