Former Rep. Bob Livingston, principal, The Livingston Group, has joined the Louisiana Republican Party as finance chairman.  Livingston said the new post as Louisiana’s top party fundraiser would not adversely impact his role with his lobby shop, saying “I would not have taken on this task without the consent of my partners, both Republican and Democrat.”

The Livingston Group has recently represented Egypt, which it continues to represent, even in a post-Mubarak regime, and Libya, which the group ceased to represent in 2008 after the nation’s leader continuously proved to be in opposition to U.S. policy.

In the party’s official press release Chairman Roger Villere states, ““With major statewide and legislative elections on the ballot this Viagra 100mg year it is crucial for our party to have the resources necessary to aggressively advance our conservative message, and I’m delighted to add a proven fundraiser and campaign veteran like Bob to our team… I’m confident that with his help our party will maintain its dominance in statewide elected offices and extend our majorities in the State House and State Senate.”

Said Livingston, “These are historic times for the conservative movement in Louisiana and I thank Chairman Villere for giving me the opportunity to facilitate our party’s continued growth and success.  I look forward to working with the chairman and I’m excited to assist our candidates up and down the ballot to succeed this fall.”
