Connecticut Local Politics

I just received word that Rep. Rosa DeLauro will endorse Barack Obama on Saturday (presumably at the Old State House with Reps. Murphy and Larson)… More as this develops…

… This is big news as Rep. DeLauro’s husband, pollster Stan Greenberg is the former pollster to President Clinton and the 3rd CD, as I mentioned yesterday about the 1st CD, has an odd number of delegates – someone will get an extra delegate out of the the 3rd and every little bit helps in a close election…

… Rep. DeLauro’s office will only confirm that she will make her endorsement tomorrow, but not who the endorsement will be for. The Hilltop Brigade, a group linked with Rep. DeLauro, emailed its membership this morning to let them know that the endorsement will be for Sen. Obama.
