Vernon Harrison Wins Decisive Victory in Bid to Challenge Lynch

Press Release

Harrison credits grassroots effort in 9th district win

Republican candidate Vernon Harrison won the primary election for the U.S. Congress from the ninth district of Massachusetts with a decisive 63% of the vote. He ran on a platform that focused on job creation, the economy, and a Washington that is out of touch with the Massachusetts voter.

"Congress is broken. They're crippling our economy, they're getting in the way of business, and Stephen Lynch has become part of the problem," said Harrison. "Lynch has voted with Nancy Pelosi 97.8% of the time. You can't tell me that represents Massachusetts."

Harrison credits his win to grassroots outreach and to independent and disaffected voters.

A forty-five year resident of the 9th district, Harrison is currently Chief Technologist for a data management firm and resides in Braintree with his wife and three of his five children.
