NRCC NAMES YVETTE HERRELL “CONTENDER”
Herrell elevated to next tier in Young Guns Program
ALAMOGORDO – The National Republican Congressional Committee, the House campaign arm of the national Republican Party, has named Yvette Herrell to its first round of “Contender” candidates in their exclusive Young Guns program.
“These hardworking candidates have proven their ability to run strong, competitive campaign operations,” said House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy. “We’re going to ensure these contenders are victorious in November by forcing their Democratic opponents to own their party’s radical socialist agenda.”
“Today’s announcement is yet another validation of the winning campaign that we are building,” said Herrell. “We will continue working hard all across this district, taking nothing for granted as we earn the Republican nomination and then take back this seat from Nancy Pelosi’s puppet Xochitl Torres Small.”
The NRCC’s Young Guns program requires candidates to work towards specific goals and meet benchmarks throughout the election cycle to ensure their campaigns remain competitive, well-funded and communicative within their districts. Contender candidates have completed stringent program metrics and are on the path to developing a mature and competitive campaign operation.
