Denise Garlick is a Pro-Choice candidate and is listed as such on the NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts website, available here. However, NARAL has declined to endorse a candidate for the 13th Norfolk district during this primary cycle. Due to a misunderstanding, the Garlick campaign listed NARAL’s endorsement on a single piece of campaign literature, hand-delivered to some Needham homes on September 11, 2010 and apologizes for the error.
(9/13 UPDATES):
The campaign delivered different literature that did not mention NARAL to Needham residents while canvassing on September 12 and 13.
In a statement to the Needham Times, Andrea Miller, executive director for NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts said, "We want to confirm and reiterate that NARAL has remained neutral. I think it's an honest misunderstanding, unfortunately. But it's very important voters know NARAL is remaining neutral."
