Kennedy.
The Independent Party of Connecticut has endorsed state Rep. Kathy Kennedy as their party’s candidate for state representative in the 119th Assembly District, which includes parts of Milford and Orange, for this November’s election.
The endorsement means that Kennedy will not just appear on the Republican line, but will also appear on the Independent Party line on the ballot in November.
Connecticut residents not affiliated with either major party make up the largest percentage of voters in the state.
“People first is my mantra. As your state legislator, I have pledged to put the needs of the people of the 119th District above the wants of party leaders and special interests,” Kennedy said.
The Independent Party is the third-largest political party in Connecticut with over 37,000 registered voters. It has cross-endorsed several candidates from other parties across the state this year, as well as running some of its own candidates.
