Governor Spencer Cox Endorses Ted Cruz for President
Provo, UT –
The Cruz for President campaign today announced the endorsement of Utah
Lt. Governor Spencer Cox at a rally in Provo, Utah. Lt. Gov. Cox was
sworn in as Utah’s 8th Lieutenant Governor in 2013. Cox served as a law
clerk to Federal District Judge Ted Stewart and then became an attorney
in Salt Lake City. He served as a Councilman and Mayor of Fairview
City, as a Sanpete County Commissioner and in the Utah House of
Representatives.
“I
am supporting Ted Cruz for president because he is the strong,
principled leader we need to help get our country back on track," said
Lt. Gov Cox. "Ted has unwaveringly fought for conservative principles
time after time and as President he will do the same. I am asking all
of my fellow Utah Republicans to join me, Senator Mike Lee, and Mitt
Romney in voting for Ted Cruz on Tuesday.”
“I
am thrilled to have Spencer’s support,” said Cruz. “He has proven
himself to be a strong leader for Utah. Spencer is a principled
conservative who has a great respect for our Constitution and the rule
of law and I am proud to have him on our team.”
