Mayor Mark Boughton of Danbury, according to the Connecticut Post:
Boughton said he’s received numerous phone calls in recent weeks from people throughout Connecticut urging him to run for the state’s top office.
“It’s certainly flattering to be considered but at this point I haven’t filed any committee for any office,” he said.
Boughton, who was elected to serve a fifth term in office early this month, said that while he is committed to serving the people of Danbury he “certainly wouldn’t rule out” a run for the governor’s seat.
OK, maybe racist is a little too strong but consider the evidence from CT Blogger at My Left Nutmeg:
As someone who has followed the assault on the immigrant community from its beginnings, Mayor Mark Boughton’s refusal to properly address the ever rising level of racism in the city (under his watch) has been well documented over the years.
