On the morning that Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney announced that Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan will be his running mate, Martha’s Vineyard Democrats focused on a more local political decision as they heard from the two candidates they will choose between in the congressional primary on Sept. 6.
Congressional candidate Elizabeth Warren made a quick swing through Martha’s Vineyard this weekend.
Ms. Warren, a Democrat who is looking to unseat incumbent Sen. Scott Brown, was on the Island from Friday night through Saturday, campaign spokesman Matthew Cournoyer said. She attended the July meeting of the Martha’s Vineyard Democrats Saturday morning in West Tisbury, and then spent some time at the West Tisbury Farmers’ Market. She also attended a few other events and fundraisers during the day, he said.
