As the only newly elected Republican Governor and a Hispanic Leader that enjoys a clear mandate for change, Gov. Luis Fortuño is a key asset in the planning of the GOP Comeback.
To read more on the important role of Governors in this 2010-2012 GOP Comeback:
"The Republican Governors Association knows our governors will lead the Party’s comeback. The RGA is ready to kickstart the Republican comeback this year by winning governors' races in Virginia and New Jersey. We will then remake the political map in 2010, when the RGA will have 36 governors' races. By winning the two races this year and the majority of races in 2010, Republican governors will prove the GOP can win races in all regions of the country.
Electing more Republican governors has never been more important. We know Republicans won't become America's majority party again until we reclaim the majority of governorships. The RGA has a plan in place to do just that and it begins with Virginia and New Jersey."
