Congresswoman Stefanik has now earned the unanimous endorsement of 12 NY-21 Republican Committees
SARATOGA, NY—Today, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik announced that she has earned the unanimous endorsements of the St. Lawrence, Oswego, and Essex County Republican committees. Stefanik has now been endorsed unanimously by twelve Republican committees in the 21st district, including Saratoga, Franklin, Herkimer, Fulton, Jefferson, Clinton, Hamilton, Warren, Oneida, St. Lawrence, Oswego, and Essex Counties.
St Lawrence County GOP Chair Connie Elen said:
“Last night our St. Lawrence County Republican Committee once again unanimously endorsed Congresswoman Stefanik for re-election. We’re honored to continue to call Elise our representative. From farmers, to seniors, to veterans, to parents and school kids, Elise never forgets who she’s fighting for. Our committee looks forward to working with Congresswoman Stefanik to expand our County legislature majority and deliver Republican victories throughout St. Lawrence.”
Oswego County GOP Chair Fred Beardsley said:
“Oswego County Republicans were proud to unanimously endorse Congresswoman and GOP House Conference Chair Elise Stefanik. Long before NY-21 included parts of Oswego County, we’ve looked up to Elise as a strong leader for our conservative values. Republicans in Oswego could not be more excited to soon call Elise our representative. We look forward to supporting the Congresswoman’s re-election efforts this November and building on strong momentum to elect Republicans at every level.”
Essex County GOP Chair John Gereau said:
“I’m proud to announce that Essex County Republicans have once again unanimously endorsed Congresswoman Elise Stefanik’s re-election campaign. Elise is a conservative champion who has delivered results for Essex County veterans, seniors, small businesses, and families. We’re honored to support her campaign as she continues fighting for Essex County, New York, and America.”
The expanded NY-21 district voted for President Trump by 19% in 2020, nearly doubling the margin in the prior NY-21, and voted for the GOP gubernatorial candidate in 2018 by 30%. Congresswoman Stefanik has been re-elected by historic margins every single election cycle despite millions of dollars spent against her. The new seat has been described in multiple media outlets as a “GOP Super Seat.”
