    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    Democratic Congressional Candidate Ellen Greenberg (NJ-11) Sweeps Sussex County
    Democratic Convention

    The Ellen Greenberg for Congress campaign is pleased to announce the endorsement of the
    Sussex County Democratic Committee following a big win at the Sussex County Democratic
    Convention.

    The Democrats have a three-way congressional race in New Jersey’s 11th district.

    Sunday’s contest, which marks the first major test of the candidates, demonstrates that Ellen
    Greenberg’s message best resonates with voters. She won handily receiving  two-thirds of the
    votes cast.

    Ellen’s remarks honed in on key campaign issues including the economy, the war in Iraq, and
    health care.  Her speech received resounding applause from convention attendees.  “Our inability
    to take care of our people here at home can all be traced back to two things…irresponsible
    spending on the war in Iraq, and a 1.3 trillion dollar tax break for the wealthiest Americans.”

    The win represents a major victory for Ellen Greenberg’s campaign which has steadily been gaining
    momentum in recent weeks.  Sunday's win demonstrates she has strong support heading into the
    June Primary.
