Dawn Euer Declares Victory In District 13 Senate Primary

NEWPORT, RI — Dawn Euer has issued a statement about today's results in the Democratic Primary special election for the District 13 Senate seat. The Providence Journal and other news sources are also reporting Euer is the winner.

“I want to thank the voters of Jamestown and Newport for believing in our campaign and our vision for the district; but most importantly I want to thank them for choosing me as their Democratic nominee for State Senate.

“We started talking to voters over four months ago and heard loud and clear what voters in this district care about. We care about investing in our workers and small businesses to create jobs. We care about building a government that is transparent and accountable. We want to do more to stem the tide of climate change and prepare our communities for the impacts we are already seeing. And we know that our seniors deserve to get access to the care they need to age in place.

“During these months, we’ve built incredible grassroots energy and momentum that has been both humbling and inspiring. We’re looking forward to carrying that energy forward to win the General Election in August.”

Newport City Clerk Tracy Nelson said her office has not yet received all the election machines from the polling places, and she has not released the returns yet.
