    Armenian Weekly
    January 25, 2010

    On Jan. 24, Danny Tarkanian's campaign for the United States Senate
    announced the recent endorsement by former California Governor George
    Deukmejian.

    "I am pleased to announce my endorsement of Danny Tarkanian for
    the United States Senate," said Governor Deukmejian. "Danny is both
    an entrepreneur and a leading voice in non-profit educational work
    in his community. Most importantly Danny Tarkanian is committed to
    building a better future for his state and to helping to shape the
    policies critical to America's future, while remaining true to our core
    conservative values and fundamental principles of the Constitution."

    "Danny Tarkanian is poised to become the first Armenian American member
    of the United States Senate, and I am confident that he will work
    tirelessly as an advocate for the issues important to all Americans,"
    the former governor added.

    "I am deeply grateful for Governor Deukmejian's support," said Danny
    Tarkanian. "I have always said that I want to be a public servant,
    rather than a politician, and Governor Deukmejian's strong leadership
    as governor of California is an example I would be proud to follow."

    In turn, "Armenians for Tarkanian" welcomed the endorsement. "Governor
    Deukemejian's endorsement is a powerful and warmly welcomed addition
    to the growing support for Danny Tarkanian's bid for the Senate,"
    said Armenians for Tarkanian activist Aram Gaboudian. "Danny will
    bring the Armenian American community's concerns directly to the the
    Senate, standing up to the politics-as-usual approach to the Armenian
    Genocide and the full range of Armenian American issues."
