On Wednesday, Assemblywoman Mary Pat Angelini (R-11) issued the following formal concession statement now that the November 3rd Election results have been certified, Save Jerseyans:
The voters of the 11th District have spoken and I respect the choices that they have made. I congratulate Joann Downey and Eric Houghtaling and wish them nothing but the best.
Serving in the Legislature for the past eight years has been an incredible experience that I will always cherish.
I am proud of my legislative accomplishments and especially, my efforts to shine a light on the issues affecting the more vulnerable segments of our society, including young people and individuals struggling with substance abuse and mental illness.
I am forever grateful for the many wonderful friends, colleagues and supporters who helped make my time in the Assembly such a tremendous experience. I thank the residents of the 11th District for giving me the opportunity to serve and I look forward to what the next chapter of my life will bring.”
Democrats spent approximately $1.5 million to defeat Angelini and her running mate, Caroline Casagrande.
