“Much has been said about Bill Layton’s leadership and remarkable record of success. With his guidance and support, Republicans won tough Congressional, legislative, county, and local races across New Jersey. And those wins meant real results for the people of this state – lower taxes, quality public services, true accountability, and good government. Our state and our party are better for Bill’s contributions. Our deepest sympathies are with his family, friends, and colleagues at this time.” – Bob Hugin, NJGOP Chairman
“Bill‘s friends will tell you with a smile that Bill was a force of nature. His record as a leader of our party certainly attests to his ability to pull off the improbable. During his tenure as Chairman, Burlington County Republicans consistently won countywide races despite being out-numbered by nearly 40,000 Democrats. They did so by running highly effective campaigns, recruiting top tier candidates, elevating diverse voices (including the most young women in NJ history), and understanding that delivering good government is good politics. Bill’s team will also tell you, they had a lot of fun doing it. Bill will be missed dearly by his friends, his family, our party and our state.” – Theresa Velardi, NJGOP Executive Director |
