(NN&V staff) – Under the leadership of Dale Andrus – former Republican primary candidate for Assembly District 33 – and Kent Howard, a former Elko County Republican chairman, Republicans for Janine Hansen for Assembly has been launched with over sixty Republicans lending their support.
Hansen is running for the District 33 seat as the Independent American Party (IAP) candidate. The seat is being vacated by Assemblyman John Carpenter, who has been term-limited out of office.
“I believe Janine Hansen is the best qualified candidate for Assembly District 33 and will work diligently for the citizens of Elko County and Nevada,” said Andrus, chairman of the Republicans for Janine Hansen committee. “She has vast experience working with legislators and would be exceptionally effective dealing with legislative matters. Janine is a conservative in the best sense of the word. Nevada needs conservative legislators who can make decisions based of the difficult economic times we are currently facing.”
“I am supporting Janine Hansen for Assembly District 33 because we can no longer afford to have professional politicians that only know how to tax and spend,” added Howard, vice-chairman of the group. “She received Citizen Outreach’s ‘Conservative of the Year’ award in 2009 for the great work she has done in past years to uphold constitutional principles.”

“Janine Hansen is certainly my pick for Assembly District 33,” says Thelma Homer, a local tea party activist. “She is rock-solid, honest, hardworking and unintimidated. She cannot be bought or flattered into submission, and will fight a very articulate and informed fight when she knows she is right. Her opponent, on the other hand, John Ellison, is a ‘good old boy.’ These are two very different candidates – with John Ellison being a go-along politician and Janine who will fight tooth and nail for the people of this state.”
“I greatly appreciate the support I have received from so many Republicans,” Hansen said. “People of all parties are concerned with the crisis that faces our state and nation. We cannot expect things to change unless we change who we elect. Raising taxes yet again is not the answer to our economic woes. We must work to revitalize free enterprise so that jobs can be created and return to the constitutional principles of limited government which are the foundation of prosperity and liberty.”
