Andy Harris Win in MD-01 is a Victory for Maryland Taxpayers
Washington – Tonight, the Club for Growth PAC’s endorsed candidate, State Senator Andy Harris, won the Republican primary in Maryland’s First Congressional District against incumbent Congressman Wayne Gilchrest.
Andy Harris campaigned on a message of economic conservatism, calling for lower taxes, an end to wasteful government spending, and greater economic freedom. With a solid victory over Wayne Gilchrest, it is clear that Harris’ strong record of standing up for taxpayers in Maryland’s State Legislature and his message on the campaign trail resonated with Republican voters. Voters refused to settle for pork barrel spending and higher taxes when they had a taxpayer hero like Andy Harris to vote for.
“We extend a hearty congratulations to Andy Harris and are confident he will win the general election in November,” said Club for Growth President Pat Toomey. “It is clear from tonight's victory that voters want their representatives to stand up and fight for limited government and economic freedom. In Andy Harris, Maryland Republicans have found such a person.”
