Nebraska Constitutional Officers Support Fahleson for National Committeeman


This week I was fortunate to receive the endorsement of three of Nebraska's outstanding constitutional officers:  Secretary of State John Gale, Attorney General Jon Bruning and State Treasurer Don Stenberg.

I have known and worked with all three gentlemen for a long, long time, both professionally as well as in our respective political capacities.  Secretary of State Gale, a former Nebraska Republican Party Chairman himself, hails from North Platte and understands what role the National Committeeman must play in working for all Nebraskans.  Attorney General Jon Bruning is a conservative hero in Nebraska and throughout the nation for his efforts to have ObamaCare declared unconstitutional (soon we will be thanking him once again once the Court issues its decision this month).  State Treasurer Don Stenberg is a Republican stalwart, fighting for conservative principles in each and every endeavor he has undertaken. 

I am very, very grateful to have their support in my bid to become Nebraska's next Republican National Committeeman.

National GOP Leader/Former NCM Duane Acklie Endorses Mark Fahleson



I have always had the utmost respect for Duane Acklie, an accomplished lawyer, successful businessman, and counselor to Republican presidents who honorably served as Nebraska's Republican National Committeeman.  I am especially grateful that Duane has endorsed my bid to serve in the position he held for 20 years:
"An articulate, focused, and driven National Committeeman is very important to Nebraska.  I have known Mark Fahleson since he graduated from law school.  He has the background, education, drive, and ability to serve Nebraska and our nation as Committeeman.  He is the most highly qualified and motivated person I know to be Republican National Committeeman for Nebraska. I am honored to join Senator Johanns, Governor Heineman, and others in endorsing Mark Fahleson."  The Honorable Duane Acklie

President Romney: Day One

A Romney Presidency includes swift approval of the Keystone Pipeline blocked by Obama to curry favor with the radical environmentalists.   Our country is in need of leadership, and Obama has proven that he is, in the words of former President Clinton, an "amateur."

Governor Heineman Endorses Mark Fahleson for National Committeeman




I am pleased to announce that Nebraska Governor Dave Heineman has officially endorsed my candidacy for Republican National Committeeman:

“For over 25 years Mark Fahleson has labored on  behalf of our Republican Party, doing the “blocking and tackling” necessary to achieve victory for our candidates and conservative principles.  Mark has been an outstanding Nebraska Republican Party Chair, guiding our party through the historic 2010 elections and leading the effort to create an open U.S. Senate seat in 2012.  Mark’s service on the local, state and national level is appreciated, and he understands what it takes to be a successful member of the Republican National Committee.  I wholeheartedly support Mark Fahleson in his bid to become our Republican National Committeeman.”  Governor Dave Heineman
