Smith, Zine endorse Whitman

Weighing in on the governor's race, Councilmen Greig Smith and Dennis Zine announced their endorsement of Meg Whitman in the Republican primary in June.
The two are the only Republicans on the City Council.
"I am grateful to receive the endorsement of Dennis and Greig," Whitman said. "Working together, we will create jobs, make state government more efficient and give our cities and communities the tools they need to thrive."
Zine said Whitman, the former chief of EBay, will bring a fresh perspective to governing, while Smith said she will bring a business attitude to running the state.
