The Massachusetts GOP has issued the following press release:
Follow us on TwitterThe Massachusetts Republican Party announced today that Jennifer A. Nassour was elected as chair of the Massachusetts Republican State Committee on a platform of strengthening the party’s grassroots, fund raising and communications. Nassour pledged to be a full-time chair and lead a resurgence of the MassGOP by harnessing the energy, dedication and spirit of Massachusetts Republicans and expanding outreach to unenrolled voters.
MassGOP Chair Jennifer Nassour said, “The Massachusetts Republican Party is blessed with great strengths, including dedicated and impassioned activists, accomplished and willing fundraisers, and principles that ring true and clear with Massachusetts voters. Together, we will grow this party from the grassroots up, building a strong base from which we can launch winning campaigns.”
“The MassGOP will continue to be the voice for common sense and honesty in the Commonwealth. By promoting and defending our values, we will generate new voters, new resources and a new day for Massachusetts Republicans,” added Nassour.
Nassour replaces outgoing Chair Peter Torkildsen, who stepped down after a two-year term.
The Honorable Peter Torkildsen said, “I congratulate Jennifer on her victory. She has many years of experience helping Republican candidates and she is committed to returning two-party competition to Massachusetts. I look forward to helping her in any way I can.”
“All Republicans in Massachusetts owe Peter a debt of gratitude for his service as an elected official and as steward of the party. We wish him well in his future endeavors and hope to continue to benefit from his experience and wisdom,” concluded Nassour.
Nassour’s comprehensive plan for rebuilding the Massachusetts Republican Party includes focusing on the traditional aspects of a strong party – grassroots, fundraising and candidate recruitment – while also increasing the use of technology to connect and communicate with voters. Her plan also calls for cooperating with New England and national Republican organizations and building connections with like-minded civic organizations.
Nassour, 37, is a Republican State Committee member from Charlestown and is Of Counsel to Consigly & Brucato, P.C., in Milford. Nassour is an accomplished fundraiser and a veteran of Republican politics.
As a fundraiser for both political and charitable causes, Nassour has raised more than $1 million. As a state committee member, she has been an active supporter of Republican candidates up and down the ballot, and she served as finance director for the Grabauskas for Treasurer campaign.
Nassour earned her juris doctor from St. John’s University School of Law in 2000. She also holds a bachelor’s degree in political science from the State University of New York at Stony Brook and a master’s degree in political science from C.W. Post University.
Nassour and her husband, C.J. Brucato III, live in Charlestown with their two daughters.

she served in the Swift Administration. Nuff said.
Muffy Two Perhaps? She should start today by wacking Deval for the 4% pay raises for state employees…or is that too divisive?
I’m with Mr. X. Unless she comes out of the gate hitting hard, we’re looking at another lightweight.
Oh, there’s that “grass roots” thing……let’s see how that works for ya.
Speaking as one of the ‘grassroots’, Jennifer We Hardly Know Ye, ….but let’s see if you can help this Massachusetts Party advocate a coherent Pro-Family, Pro-Stewardship, Anti-corruption policy agenda as the other candidate, Mike Franco, would have done so well.
Let’s not go ’squish’ again. The party of Bill Pyne deserves better than that. “There’s great fellowship in a good cause.”, as he used to say.
For the uninitiated, I should probably have mentioned that Bill Pyne was the ‘principal founding member’ of the UMass Republican Cub, a.m.d.g., in the early 1980’s.
I’ve never heard of this person prior to about a month ago. Where can one find her list of accomplishments other than having worked for Plane Jane of 9-11 fame?
Having just read an interview with Jennifer in Bay Windows – in which she repudiates all traditional Republican standard values such as opposing abortion and same sex marriage – in fact all “Social issues, which are personal” – I say we have just one more RINO. Line her up with McCain, Collins, Snowe and Spectre and dump them all! WE DO NOT NEED ANOTHER APOLOGIST FOR OUR BELIEFS ! Don’t we have enough apologizing for Americans being done by the President?
