FP1 Congratulates Senator Cornyn On Decisive Victory
WASHINGTON, March 5, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- FP1 Strategies
today congratulated Texas Senator and Minority Whip John Cornyn for
securing an impressive primary victory in the Lone Star State last
night. Senator Cornyn is running for re-election to the United States
Senate where he currently serves in leadership. By securing a majority
of the vote, Senator Cornyn avoids a runoff election.
FP1 Partner Rob Jesmer serves as the general consultant for Senator
Cornyn's re-election campaign and said, "The entire FP1 team is
thrilled that Senator Cornyn was able to earn such an overwhelming
victory last night. Senator Cornyn is a proven leader with a plan to
move Texas and our country forward. After five years of failure under
President Obama, Senator Cornyn understands it is more important than
ever to elect Republicans this fall and will work harder than ever to
accomplish that goal."
