Newt Gingrich has just finished speaking at a Rally in Buffalo.
He was joined by Carl Paladino, local developer and former GOP gubernatorial candidate.
Paladino has been a longtime supporter of Gingrich, who enjoyed Tea Party support throughout the race. Paladino has been critical of Romney, and in a release said the following:
“Help us send a clear message to the Republican Establishment that financing Mitt Romney’s negative advertising campaign against Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum is unacceptable to the Republican rank and file whose desire is to nominate the best candidate to face down the evil that permeates Washington today. The attempt to shove Mitt Romney’s candidacy down the throats of the people is abhorrent.”

Romney Delaware Endorser Switches His Support to Gingrich
Hans Reigle, Chairman of the Kent County Republican Party, is switching his support from Mitt Romney to Newt Gingrich. Reigle has also served as the Mayor of Wyoming, Delaware and over 20 years in the United States Air Force.
“I previously endorsed Governor Romney, but since then Newt is the only candidate who has shown a willingness to meet and talk with Delaware voters for more than hour,” said Hans Reigle. ”Over the past few weeks I’ve listened to Newt discussing his vision for achieving $2.50 gasoline, balancing the budget, and shrinking the size of government and it is exactly the kind of positive agenda we need for Delaware and America. I’m proud to switch my support to Newt Gingrich and cast my vote for him next Tuesday.”
