Chris Caruso Will Ride to Dan Malloy’s Rescue Today

Democratic gubernatorial nominee Dannel Malloy could not gain the endorsement of the Bridgeport Democratic Town Committee, but today he’ll get the backing of one of the city’s Democratic renegades, Rep. Chris Caruso, the longest-serving member of the city’s legislative delegation. Malloy, fighting to win the August 10 primary against Ned Lamont, who had a single-digit lead in the last Q Poll, will meet Caruso at 1 p.m. at the Virginia Avenue location where Gov. Jodi Rell targeted a detention center for girls, only to bow to local pressure led by Caruso.
