Kristy Roney

Senate Republican Leader Peter Bragdon (R-Milford) has announced that two people with deep roots in the state Senate will fill two key staff positions.

Angela Spradling, currently the legislative aide, is being promoted to become the minority caucus director. Kristy Roney, a former aide to the senate finance committee, will become the minority policy director.

State Senate candidate Doug Kruse (R-Manchester) has begun laying the cornerstones of his campaign.

Kruse has announced members of his finance committee and has hired Kristy Roney to manage his campaign. Roney was Mitt Romney's field director during the New Hampshire primary.
