WASHINGTON, Oct. 29 (UPI) -- U.S. Sen. Judd Gregg, R-N.H., announced Monday he is backing former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney in the Republican presidential race.

"As we head into New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation primary, I am proud to have Judd Gregg and grassroots supporters from all across the state at my side," said Romney.

Gregg, who is acknowledged as one of the Senate’s most fiscally conservative members, announced his backing of Romney, reported The Hill.

"I am proud to stand alongside Governor Romney as he campaigns to build a stronger America," said Gregg. "For months, the people of New Hampshire have had the opportunity to meet Governor Romney all over the state and listen to his ideas for bringing change to Washington. Mitt Romney embodies New Hampshire’s values — values that stress government living within its means, lower taxes, a stronger military and stronger families."
