Congresswoman Niki Tsongas outlined, in remarks to over 100 supporters at her campaign headquarters tonight, the choice voters have in November between her and her Republican opponent, whom she identified as Jon Golnik.
Tsongas declared Golnik the winner before ballots from Methuen and Lowell had been counted.
"If you want someone who will stick up for Wall Street, who would privatize Social security, who puts tax breaks for the wealthiest of Americans ahead of starting to bring down the deficit and who hasn't even been committed enough until just last year to the civic fabric of our communities to vote, then I am certainly not your candidate," Tsongas said. "But, if you want someone who will stand up to Wall Street, who will protect and strengthen Social Security, whose priority is preserving tax cuts for those who need them most in this tough economy, and who believes and has shown by her actions that if you want to solve problems you can't sit home on Election Day or any other day, then join me."
