Lalor picks up local support for campaign

May 10, 2008

Town of Wappinger Clerk Chris Masterson, a Democrat, has endorsed Republican Kieran Michael Lalor for his run for the 19th Congressional District.

Lalor announced this week the launch of Democrats for Lalor. The Peekskill resident and Republican George Oros, of Cortlandt, are running for the seat held by Rep. John Hall, D-Dover.

"Kieran represents a new generation of selfless leaders. If you want to change Washington, you have to change the type of people you send there," Masterson said.

Masterson said he served with Lalor in the Marine Corps.

Lalor said, "I'm determined to reach out to Democrats who share the same hopes for America."
