Smith Names Campaign Team

Published Nov 09 2009, 01:20 PM by David Scharfenberg

Republican gubernatorial hopeful Rory Smith has named his campaign team. Norway Hill Associates, led by David Carney, White House political director under George H.W. Bush and James McKay, a New Hampshire Republican political operative, will serve as political consultants. The Tarrance Group, a Republican pollster that has worked for Republican Senators Thad Cochran and Chuck Grassley, among others, will do polling for Smith.

Job number one for the team: put some distance between Smith and Governor Carcieri, another out-of-the-blue businessman who ran for governor.
