May 16, 2012 – Today, Joe Hudson, Owner of Hudson Management, announced he is endorsing Glen Urquhart for the newly created 6th State Senate District seat. The 6th District will serve the Milton, Harbeson, Lewes, Rehoboth and Dewey Beach area.
“I endorse Glen Urquhart for the Delaware State Senate,” says Joe Hudson. “Employers naturally trust someone who has met payrolls for years the way Glen has. He has experience tackling tough budgets. All the things we want in Sussex County - better health care, transportation, education and police protection - find their life blood in a strong economy and sound budget. Glen can help us get there.”
Urquhart welcomed Mr. Hudson’s endorsement by saying, “I am grateful for Joe’s support. He is a man that has worked hard and understands the commitment needed to run a business in Sussex County. Joe is a man who is highly respected in this community and I am thankful for his endorsement.”
As the Republican nominee for the United States House of Representatives in 2010, Glen won over 70% of the election districts making up the new 6th State Senate District. He has served as Chairman of the Sussex County Republican Party as well as on the Delaware State Police Advisory Council for Troop 7. Glen was also appointed by Presidents Reagan and Bush to serve as Chairman of the National Capital Planning Commission.
Born in Pittsburgh in 1948, the great grandson of an indentured servant, Urquhart was the first in his family to graduate from college in 1971 from the University of Virginia. Shortly after graduating, he founded Urquhart & Company. As an entrepreneur, Glen has started and been successful in numerous business ventures.
Now retired from decades of building businesses and creating jobs, Glen is running for the 6th State Senate District seat to help restore economic growth. “Being an advocate for my neighbors will be my full-time job. I will have no other competing interests. My constituents will be my only boss. My commitment will be to create jobs in Sussex County, reduce government to rebuild trust in the business community, curb excessive regulations that kill jobs, and improve education,” says Urquhart. “Having walked in their shoes, I will be the ally employers need to start hiring again.”
