State Rep. Jay Kaufman of the 15th Middlesex District Endorses Margaret Hegarty

"I would urge everyone in the 24th Middlesex District to vote for Margaret Hegarty for State Representative. Anne Paulsen and Mary Jane Gibson both served this district before, and it's time to send another great woman to the Massachusetts House. Margaret has the leadership and political skills to get the job done, and I can't wait to have her as my partner," said State Rep. Jay Kaufman (D-Lexington), endorsing Hegarty on Wednesday.
