NATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR MARRIAGE CONGRATULATES SCOTT BROWN
(WASHINGTON, DC) – The National Organization for Marriage (NOM) released the following statement congratulating newly-elected Senator Scott Brown (R-MA):
"Wow! The torch certainly has been passed to a new generation in Massachusetts. Congratulations to Scott Brown and to the people of Massachusetts who demonstrated they are in no-one's pocket," stated Maggie Gallagher, President of NOM.
"The overwhelming response to the thousands of calls we placed to Massachusetts voters shows that Scott Brown’s victory is also a victory for marriage," remarked Brian Brown, NOM’s Executive Director. “The support of the people of Massachusetts for traditional marriage was clearly a factor in this election as marriage supporters turned out to elect Scott Brown to the United States Senate.”
The National Organization for Marriage spent $50,000 in the closing days of the campaign to identify marriage voters in Massachusetts and make sure they turned out and supported Scott Brown. (Click here to view: NOM Confirms Voter Outreach Campaign).
