Lieutenant governor candidate Lisa Wilson-Foley announced Thursday that she’s received the endorsement from several state and local Shelton officials in her bid to take the GOP’s nomination away from Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton in the August primary.
State Sen. Dan Debicella, a Republican running for the 4th congressional district, has put his support behind Wilson-Foley as has Shelton GOP town chair Anthony Simonetti, according to a statement from Wilson-Foley’s campaign.
Debicella, R-Shelton, says in the release that Wilson-Foley is a “consensus builder” who brings a “common sense approach” to challenges.
“I am convinced Lisa Wilson-Foley has the background and experience it takes to make a difference in Connecticut,” Debicella said.
