Lindstrom to lead CGA for 2014 cycle

GRASSADELLIA CITY--The nation's eight Conservative governors met over the weekend in Grassadellia City.

They bade farewell to outgoing Gov. Sid Hoffa (C-Damoign), and also voted on Hoffa's successor as chair of the Conservative Governors' Association (CGA), which is responsible for recruiting and fundraising for Conservative gubernatorial candidates.

Ansleigha Gov. Dale Lindstrom ended up winning the position, taking five votes. Carova Gov. Sam Byelle received two votes, and Monomi Gov. John Densy only received one vote.

Keeping with tradition, the voting process was conducted in secret. But Lindstrom won five votes in the first round, which ruled out a second round of voting.

After the votes were counted, Lindstrom told his colleagues he appreciated their support and would work hard to re-gain governors seats in the 2014 elections.

"It's going to be a challenge, no doubt about that. But I am up for the challenge, and I think we can make up some ground that we lost in 2012," Lindstrom said.

Hoffa, who is stepping down as governor due to Damoign's one-term limit, also praised Lindstrom as a capable successor.

"I think Dale is a very capable, intelligent, and shrewd politician and strategist. If anyone can gain back some seats in our favor, I think it's Dale Lindstrom," Hoffa said.
