This endorsement is another signal of our campaign’s strong grassroots support in Atlantic County and throughout the 2nd Congressional District. I sincerely thank the Somers Point Republicans and look forward to working with all of Somers Point as we work to win back the 2nd Congressional District in 2020," said Fitzherbert.
