Governor Ned Lamont and Lt. Governor Susan Bysiewicz endorses Ed Edelson for State Representative.
“He has the knowledge of how the local and state government works, and he has the relationships with the people at the local, state, and federal level to get things done for Southbury”
We are all affected by local, state, and federal issues, and while I will be working at the state level as your State Representative, I believe it’s important to be able to affect change on all levels. Being an effective State Representative for Southbury, Roxbury, Bridgewater, and New Milford means supporting our communities in any way possible. I can support our communities in many unique ways thanks to strong relationships and decades of experience.
Connecticut Comptroller Sean Scanlon endorses Ed Edelson for State Representative.
“A pragmatic new voice in Hartford to continue our fiscal progress, to fight for the people of his district, and to continue working to make Connecticut a better place for you to live, work, and raise a family”
Fiscal responsibility matters. That is why I am proud to not only have the endorsement of our states comptroller, but his longtime friendship and trust as well. Comptroller Scanlon’s job is to be the states fiscal watchdog, making sure our money is spent right, and that means our tax dollars!
He knows that as State Representative I will need to have difficult and possibly contentious conversations about taxes that affect people in Southbury, Roxbury, Bridgewater, and New Milford. He knows I will stand strong on issues important to the people of the 69th district, and he has still chosen to endorse me, because we both are committed to a bright future for Connecticut.

I am honored to have provided advice and counsel to elected officials across Connecticut, including at the Federal level. I have always sought to support the people of Connecticut any way I am able, and my strong relationships and decades of experience will allow me to continue this lifelong passion, now as a member of the Connecticut Legislature.

Being an effective Sate Representative means being in a position to get things done for the communities you serve. I know how Hartford works, and Hartford knows that when I’m there, it’s not to play games, it’s to work hard for the people I represent.
United States Senator Richard Blumenthal endorses Ed Edelson of State Representative.
I am thankful for the endorsement of Senator Richard Blumenthal, someone who has worked extensively as an elected official representing the people of Connecticut.

And yes, I have known many of these people (including Senator Blumenthal) for over two decades.

“Ed Edelson is the best choice to represent our communities in the Connecticut 69th Legislative District. I can say this based on personal experience of working with Ed beginning when he was the executive director of the Pomperaug River Watershed Coalition over twenty years ago.
Ed is the embodiment of appropriate experience to handle state level work. He has a corporate background and first selectman of Southbury experience. He also understands the local history of our region and how it has led to current issues.
He is a person you can trust. Ed Edelson will certainly become an effective and respected voice in Connecticut governance.”
