Former state Senator from Republican area endorses Romney
Mitt Romney got an important endorsement today from Chuck Morse, who until January was a New Hampshire state Senator from a heavily Republican district.
Morse left the Senate for an unsuccessful run for Executive Council. He said he likes Romney for his fiscal conservatism. Morse's campaign consultant last fall is also a consultant to Romney.
As a Senator, Morse represented Atkinson, Pelham, Plaistow and Salem, which are some of the biggest Republican towns in the state.
The seat is now held by fellow Republican Mike Downing, a McCain supporter.
