In 2020, Lipper-Garabedian won a special election to represent the 32nd Middlesex district in the Massachusetts House of Representatives, [3] after former Representative Paul A. Brodeur was elected Mayor of Melrose. [4] She won the primary against two opponents, with 68.1% of the vote, and won the general election with 81.5% of the vote.
