Connecticut leaders endorse Elicker (D) in New Haven mayoral re-election campaign

NEW HAVEN, Conn. — New Haven Mayor Justin Elicker was endorsed by many Connecticut leaders in a re-election campaign rally Saturday morning.

Elicker was joined by many state leaders, including Gov. Ned Lamont, Lt. Gov. Susan Bysiewicz, Sen. Richard Blumenthal, Senate President Martin Looney, Treasurer Erick Russell, Comptroller Sean Scanlon, and Attorney General William Tong.

"There's a lot of momentum here and feeling very very confident going into Tuesday," Elicker told FOX61. "This is a team effort to get a lot more resources for New Haven and keep our city growing and thriving."

"The future of this state runs right through New Haven, and thank God we have an amazing partner in Justin Elicker," Gov. Ned Lamont said. "Prosperity doesn't work unless it works for everybody."
