SYRACUSE, NY— Congressman-elect John W. Mannion tonight has decisively won election in New York State’s 22nd Congressional District, flipping a seat that has been held by Republicans for the last decade.
Congressman-elect John Mannion said, “I’m honored that the people of Central New York and the Mohawk Valley have put their faith in me to serve our community in Congress. It is clear, now more than ever, that the people of NY-22 want unity in a time of division, and want a representative who will fight for a woman’s right to choose, protect Social Security and Medicare, improve our schools, and lower costs for working families. I’m grateful to be NY-22’s voice in Congress, and I want to thank every staff member, volunteer, and supporter who made this effort possible. It is the honor of a lifetime to be your next Congressman.”
John Mannion is a lifelong Central New Yorker and grandson of Irish immigrants. With nearly three decades of teaching experience in the public school system, Mannion has consistently advocated for students and educators alike. John Mannion and his wife, Jennifer, are proud residents of Geddes, New York, where they raised their three children, two in college and one recently graduated.
