Former U.S. Rep. Chris Gibson has endorsed U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik for re-election.
Gibson, who served in Congress from 2011 to 2016, called Stefanik, R-Willsboro, a “very thoughtful, hardworking, trustworthy and results-oriented leader,” he said in a news release.
Gibson said he served with Stefanik on the House Armed Services Committee and she was very prepared and focused on improving national security readiness and advocating for Fort Drum.
“In a very divisive time, Elise does her best to serve everyone in her district and I’m proud of her work. In Congress, she fosters strong professional relationships with members on both sides of the aisle. Elise is principled and independent — a model representative,” he said in a news release.
Stefanik is seeking her third two-year term representing NY-21. Also running are Democrat Tedra Cobb and Green Party candidate Lynn Kahn.
