Hamden is the Winner
Congratulations, Hamden. Democrats earned the support of Hamden’s voters, entrusting to us the Town’s next two years. We won 13 seats on the Legislative Council, taking back the three Council seats that had been held by Republicans. Led by our Mayor, Scott Jackson, we lost not a single district, not one contest. Scott took all nine districts, and with him leading the ticket, we elected Harry Gagliardi in the Second District, and Scott Harris in the Ninth. For Harry, it is his fourth term on the Council — though, distinctively (and one might say, Gagliardi-like), Harry will be representing his third different district. Scott Harris, on the other hand, is now the youngest Hamden Legislative Council member, ever. Congratulations to both of them.

Hamden’s Class Act
A bit of praise for our Democratic elected officials.
September 11th’s New Haven Register had a lovely article about the Hamden High School Class of 1989, that produced four of our Democratic leaders: Mayor Scott Jackson, Board of Education chair Michael D’Agostino, Legislative Council member Michael Colaiacovo, and Board of Education member Adam Sendroff. You can read the article here. Congratulations to the four of you, and thank you all for your service to Hamden.
