Bill Clinton Coming to Connecticut to Support Malloy

Former President Bill Clinton will be coming to Hartford on Monday to help support Gov. Dannel Malloy in his bid for another term as governor.

Clinton is the latest Democratic superstar to announce he would come to the state to support Malloy in what is expected to be a hotly-contested race, according to NBC Connecticut. President Barack Obama will visit Bridgeport on Wednesday to support Malloy.

The latest Quinnipiac Poll shows Malloy and Republican opponent Tom Foley in a deadlock. Republican star New Jersey Gov, Chris Christie visited the state earlier this week to support Foley.
