WASHINGTON, D.C. –  The Republican Governors Association (RGA) released the following statement from RGA Chairman Texas Governor Greg Abbott on the results of North Dakota’s gubernatorial primary:

“On behalf of the RGA, I extend heartfelt congratulations to Governor Burgum on earning the overwhelming support of North Dakota Republicans to continue leading the state for four more years. Governor Burgum has proven himself as a compassionate and courageous leader that North Dakotans can count on in times of crisis, and his experience as an entrepreneur and job creator will be critical as he shepherds the state through a strong recovery.

“As North Dakota continues on the path to renewed prosperity, businesses and working families will reap the benefits of the hard work Governor Burgum has already done to diversify the Peace Garden State’s economy, reform education, address behavioral health and addiction, and strengthen tribal partnerships. There couldn’t be a better leader for North Dakota than Doug Burgum.”
