Rob Jesmer, who led the National Republican Senatorial Committee through the 2010 and 2012 election cycles, has moved to Republican PR and public affairs shop FP1 Strategies as a partner.
A former Hill aide, Jesmer managed Sen. John Cornyn’s 2008 re-election and worked on Sen. John McCain’s 2008 presidential bid after posts with the national party. He directed the political operation for the National Republican congressional Committee during the GOP’s strong gains in the 2002 mid-term elections.
He becomes the fourth partner at FP1, a group that includes former Bush-Cheney national political director Terry Nelson, GOP operative Jon Downs, and PR consultant and senior Mitt Romney advisor Danny Diaz.
FP1 recently advised Sen.-elect Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) on his runoff and general election campaign and worked for Ron Paul’s presidential bid. |
