WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele released the following statement on the Michigan primary election results today:

“Congratulations to Rick Snyder and all of the Michigan Republican nominees who won their primaries tonight.  The Republican Party is excited to have a core group of strong candidates led by Rick Snyder that will stand up to the big government agenda of Democrats across Michigan and in Washington. 

“Michigan can’t afford the extreme tax and spend policies that Virg Bernero so eagerly supports.  Thankfully, folks across Michigan have a clear cut choice, as Rick Snyder will stand up to the tax, borrow and spend policies and fight for Michigan. I am fully confident that the entire slate of Republican candidates will secure victories for the GOP in November and get Michigan back on track.”
