Hundreds Turnout for Muradian Kick-Off Campaign Event

Recently, over 250 supporters joined David Muradian Jr. as he officially announced his candidacy for State Representative at his kick-off event at the Grafton Inn. The standing room only crowd was excited and enthused to hear David speak, with several loud cheers throughout his speech. 

Guest speakers included outgoing State Representative, and Assistant Minority Leader, George Peterson (R-Grafton), as well as Worcester County Sheriff Lew Evangelidis. Also in attendance showing their support were Representatives Matthew Beaton (R-Shrewsbury), Angelo D’Emilia (R-East Bridgewater), Susan Williams-Gifford (R-Wareham), Brad Hill (R-Ipswich), Steven Howitt (R-Seekonk), and Kevin Kuros (R-Uxbridge).

“The turnout was absolutely outstanding, and I am extremely grateful to all who attended,” stated David Muradian. “The showing of support is a sign that the constituents know who they trust with their vote moving forward, and I am going to continue to get out and earn the voter’s support. I thank the Representatives who came and stood by my side, as well as Peterson and Evangelidis, for their endorsements, and kind words.”
