Marco Rubio team announces Alabama leadership team

Thursday morning the Marco Rubio for President campaign announced their Alabama Leadership Team. These state leaders will work alongside State Representative Will Ainsworth and Bill Armistead, Alabama co-chairs for Marco Rubio for President, in leading the Marco Rubio for President operation in the Yellowhammer state.

“Many influential Alabama Republicans are rallying behind Marco Rubio’s candidacy because he is a next generation conservative and has innovative ideas for America’s future,” said Ainsworth. “As the one candidate that can defeat Hillary Clinton and reverse the damage caused by the Obama presidency, I am proud to be a part of the team that will help Marco do well in Alabama.”

On January 11, Rubio became the first of the presidential hopefuls to set his leadership team in all 50 states.

“We are thrilled to have earned the support of so many key leaders across Alabama,” said Jeremy Adler, Regional Spokesman for Marco Rubio for President. “We are committed to building strong organizations in all 50 states and support from these influential elected officials will allow us to put in place an impressive ground operation for the March 1st primary.”
