DANBURY, CT — The city’s Fraternal Order of Police has announced its support for Republican Dean Esposito in the mayoral race.

This is the first time the membership of Danbury Fraternal Order of Police have ever endorsed a candidate in a mayoral race.

Hat City has been regularly ranked among the state's safest cities, a factor that John Krupinsky, president of the Danbury Fraternal Order of Police ,said ranked highly in the endorsesment.

"I am honored to receive the endorsement of the Danbury Fraternal Order of Police. As your next Mayor, I will support our men and women in law enforcement by providing adequate funding and support so they can continue to keep our community safe," Esposito said.

Esposito is running against Democrat Roberto Alves for the first open mayoral seat in 20 years, following the tenure of Republican Mark Boughton and his interim replacement, Joe Cavo.
