Hatfield backs Haynes for GOP chair

Looks like Ryan Haynes has at least one supporter in his bid for the Tennessee Republican Party chair seat. (Actually, he has quite a few supporters.)

Anyhoo, in a letter sent today to SEC members, District 6 party rep Ted Hatfield noted:

I wanted to write you today to tell you a little about my friend Ryan Haynes. I have had the pleasure to get to know Ryan over the last several years and witness firsthand his maturity, work ethic, and commitment to the Republican Party.

Ryan has worked countless hours not only in his own campaigns but assisted in the efforts of many other conservative candidates over the years. I have also had the pleasure to see his leadership qualities as he Chairs the Knox Co. Delegation of the legislature.

When Ryan gets involved in something he really goes all in as he has shown with his commitment to resign from the legislature if elected Chair. He has the ability to connect with many different types of people on many different levels and will make a great leader of this party. I hope you will join me in supporting Ryan Haynes for Party Chair on April 11th.

In addition to Ryan, Memphis radiologist George Flinn, state Rep. Mary Littleton, R-Dickson; Rebecca Burke of Williamson County; and former Davidson County GOP Chairwoman Kathleen Starnes are vying for the seat.
