It’s not going to be the same without you. Where will we get our combs now? Ray Burton was a class act and I don’t envy whoever tries to take on his district. These are big shoes to fill.
Chairman Horn’s Statement on Councilor Ray Burton’s Retirement
Concord – New Hampshire Republican State Committee Chairman Jennifer Horn released the following statement today on Executive Councilor Ray Burton’s decision to not seek reelection due to health concerns:
“Ray Burton is a legend in New Hampshire politics, and it’s hard to even consider the Executive Council without his steady and reassuring presence. For over three decades, Ray has been a tireless champion for the North Country, a respected bipartisan leader and one of the most dedicated elected officials in New Hampshire.
“There will never be another public servant like Councilor Ray Burton. He is simply irreplaceable and his difficult decision is an enormous loss for our state. New Hampshire is thankful for his outstanding service and our thoughts and prayers are with him during these trying times.”
NH State Representative Steven Smith
