Just because you have Bill and Hillary Clinton stumping for you, a victory is not guaranteed.
Marjorie Margolies, whose son is married to the Clintons’ daughter, Chelsea, did not succeed in winning back her old House seat representing the Philadelphia suburbs. On Tuesday night, she lost to state Rep. Brendan Boyle, according to the Associated Press.
Margolies was the only candidate Hillary Clinton – who is considering a bid for the Oval Office — campaigned for this election cycle. Former President Bill Clinton starred in a television advertisement for Margolies as well.
“If you send Marjorie to Congress, she’ll make you proud, she’ll vote right,” he declared in the ad. Margolies was defeated in a bruising midterm election for Democrats in 1994, a result of casting the deciding vote for then-President Clinton’s 1993 budget.
