Saul Anuzis picks up four more votes today. Three state party chairmen, Karen Floyd of South Carolina, Chris Healy of Connecticut, and Matt Strawn of Iowa, and one committeeman, Glenn McCall of S.C., endorse Anuzis in an announcement to members. Originally, Healy and Strawn had backed Gentry Collins, the former political director of the GOP, who dropped out of the race after failing to build momentum. “Republican activists must know their chairman is going to be down in the trenches with them and donors must have confidence their dollars are being used effectively,” Healy says in the statement.

The announcement brings Anuzis’s total to 14 votes, pushing him to third place behind Michael Steele.
