CITY REPUBLICANS FIELD FULL SLATE OF CANDIDATES

MANCHESTER - The Manchester Republican Committee has announced that
thirty-eight candidates have filed for the city's thirty-five state
representative seats, and three Republicans are running to represent
the city in the state senate.  All six Republican house incumbents have
filed for another term, as well as Republican Senator Ted Gatsas.

"These candidates come from all walks of life, from all ages and
professions," said MRC Chair Will Infantine, "What they have in common
is dedication to basic Republican principles: lower taxes, a balanced
budget, limited government, and a commitment to actually representing
their constituents in the legislature."

Promising an energetic campaign, Infantine pointed to Democratic
mis-steps over the last two years as a reason for the Republican
enthusiasm.  "They've made so many mistakes that people are eager for a
change," said Infantine.  "The Democrats campaigned as moderates who
support fiscal responsibility, but then they spent us into a $200
million hole - when they bothered to show up at all.  People see things
like that and they get really fired up.  Our overflowing slate of
candidates reflects the GOP's energy and excitement."
