Craig wraps up Tour on Eastern Shore.

Team Craig finished up their announcement tour Wednesday, only to gear up for the campaign trail again, preparing for another series of tours, scheduled for September and October. The “Listening Tours”, as Craig stated in an interview, will last for 3-4 days, where he'll travel across the state to hear the peoples voices on issues.

At a Blogger Event in Annapolis, Craig suggested that he will have an announcement for Lieutenant Governor by the end of summer. He said he's looking for someone with experience. Some believe that Craig is likely to select a young woman (age 30's - 40's) whom is currently holding elected office. Possible running mates could include Anne Arundel County Executive Laura Neuman, Delegate Kelly Scultz, Delegate Kathy Szeliga.

Craig also says he's used to primary elections.In recent years, one of the problems affecting the party has been turnout. Voters who favored a candidate that lost the primary have tended to distance themselves from being active in the general election. Craig emphasized the importance of teamwork. A coalition of grassroots volunteers, donors, conservatives and moderates alike working together will be crucial if the GOP aims to win the Governor's mansion in 2014.
