NRA-PVF Endorses Christine O'Donnell for U.S. Senate in Delaware's Republican Primary

Friday, September 10, 2010

Fairfax, Va. - The National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) is endorsing Christine O'Donnell for election to the U.S. Senate in Delaware's September 14th Republican primary.

"We can count on Christine O'Donnell to defend the Second Amendment freedoms of Delaware's law-abiding gun owners, hunters and sportsmen."

Christine O'Donnell's commitment to preserving the Second Amendment has earned her an "AQ" rating and endorsement from the NRA-PVF.

O'Donnell supports national right-to-carry reciprocity and efforts to reform the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. She also opposes reenacting the Clinton gun and magazine ban and believes sportsmen should have access to federally-owned or administered lands for hunting, fishing, trapping and recreational shooting.

"Christine O'Donnell will be a strong voice in fighting ongoing efforts by anti-gun politicians to dismantle the Second Amendment," Cox concluded. "We ask all Delaware gun-owners and hunters to vote for Christine O'Donnell in the U.S. Senate Republican primary on September 14th."

Chris W. Cox is NRA's chief lobbyist. He also serves as chairman of NRA-PVF. The National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund is responsible for political candidate rankings. These are based on candidate voting records, public statements and responses to NRA-PVF questionnaires.
