Ted Cruz Lands Key Endorsement as Pennsylvania Voters Head to Polls
With voters already going to the polls in five states, the Ted Cruz for President campaign announced a key endorsement for the Texas senator Tuesday morning.
Michael Geer, president and CEO of Pennsylvania Family Council, a leading pro-family
organization in the Keystone state, said Pennsylvania has historically served as a beacon to the world for those seeking religious liberty and freedom of conscience. Cruz, he added, would continue “diligently working to protect religious freedom and rights of conscience,” if elected president.
“I consider protecting innocent human life from conception until natural death to be of
paramount importance—a core function of government,” Geer continued. “I am confident
that a President Ted Cruz will fervently work to protect the sanctity of human life: I do
not have that same level of confidence in the other candidates.
“And finally, since mothers and fathers together in marriage provide a vital environment for strong families and thriving children, strengthening families is critical in building and maintaining a flourishing society. I am confident that Ted Cruz understands this dynamic and will promote policies that make for stronger families.”
In addition to Pennsylvania, voters are headed to the polls in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland and Rhode Island. Polls close at 8 p.m. EDT in all five states Tuesday.
