Linda McMahon continues to earn the support of grassroots leaders across Connecticut, as ten more Republican Town Committee vice chairs have announced they are endorsing her for U.S. Senate. So far, 82 RTC chairs and 28 RTC vice chairs have voiced their support for McMahon.
“Support from grassroots leaders like these is so important as our campaign continues to build momentum across Connecticut,” McMahon said. “I look forward to working with them to share my Jobs Plan for getting Connecticut and our country back to work.”
The vice chairs are personally endorsing McMahon on their own behalf, not on behalf of their local committees.
