SALEM COUNTY DEMOCRATS ENDORSE STEVE SWEENEY FOR GOVERNOR
Woodbury, NJ – Today, the Salem County Democratic Committee voted to officially endorse Steve Sweeney to be New Jersey’s next Governor, adding another county endorsement on his way to securing the Democratic nomination. Democrats of Salem County endorsed Steve in recognition of his advocacy for the county throughout his career and his promise to lower energy costs, keep our communities safe, and deliver economic prosperity for the Garden State. This latest endorsement marks Steve’s fifth county endorsement of the Democratic primary season, following endorsements from Gloucester, Atlantic, Burlington, and Cumberland counties.
After the win, Steve Sweeney issued the following statement:
“I am grateful to have the backing of the Salem County Democrats. I have fought tough battles in my career for the hardworking men and women who call Salem home, including saving Salem’s nuclear plants and securing major investments from Trenton, and I promise to never take their support for granted. With Salem County standing with me, I know we can win this thing.
”But we’ve still got work to do. We need to address our state’s skyrocketing costs, protect our communities, and build a New Jersey that puts workers and their families first. Now, and every day until Election Day, I’m going to fight for everyone in New Jersey – no matter who they are, no matter where they are.”
