"Candidate for House was arrested on DUI charge after concert" by Steve LeBlanc, Associated Press | September 1, 2010
Jon Golnik, a Republican challenger to US Representative Niki Tsongas, was arrested in 2001 and charged with operating under the influence of drugs and alcohol, according to a police report obtained by the Associated Press.
Golnik’s license was suspended. The driving under the influence of alcohol charge was continued without a finding, which allows defendants to avoid jail if they stay out of trouble. A marijuana charge was eventually dismissed.
This is the dirt they dug up on the guy?
In an interview yesterday, Golnik acknowledged drinking and driving, but said he had not smoked marijuana and did not have rolling papers, as police said in their report. Golnik said he was on his way home from an AC/DC concert at the FleetCenter when he was pulled over...
On the highway to hell, huh?
Golnik, who resells Boston College merchandise, is in a four-way Republican race for the state’s Fifth District. He is considered a leading candidate.
I'm sure this will put a dent in the lead.
Whoever prevails in the Sept. 14 primary will go on to challenge Tsongas, a Democrat and the incumbent....
