Ray praises Roberts leadership after committee action
Governor Ray released a statement saying the committee move was somewhat surprising and credited Roberts with remarkably successful leadership of the Iowa Republican Party. He noted gains in Senate and congressional seats, party control of the Legislature, and broad support for Roberts and his wife. Webster pledged support for Ray but declined to indicate future loyalty if Ray seeks re election in 1982. Roberts warned that party contributions could dry up following the committee decision.
