Campaign Trail Leads Into The Lake
Courant Staff Writer Amanda Falcone files this report:
Mark Greenberg was on the campaign trail Thursday, touring Candlewood Lake with a few campaign staff members and supporters.
His campaign’s director of operations, Susan Tiso, of Danbury, pointed out the sights as the platoon boat went by Brookfield, Danbury, New Milford and Sherman. This is a way for the candidate to see the 5th Congressional District from a different view, she said.
Greenberg, a Republican, is preparing for an Aug. 14 primary. He will face Justin Bernier, Andrew Roraback and Lisa Wilson-Foley.
On his boat ride, Greenberg, greeted children swimming in the lake, watched people swing from ropes and land in the water, and even tried driving the platoon. Afterward, he mingled with supporters at Down The Hatch in Brookfield.

How ironic that Mark Greenberg, a member of the 1%, cruises by his potential constituents on a boat and admires them like animals in a zoo.
only a liberal would look at it that way. I’m glad my view of the world is not that same as yours Seymour.
Mark met with 50-60 potential constituents after the boat ride and has visited with constituents and businesses throughout all the towns in the district on jobs tours and other events for the past year. if you think Mark acts like one of the 1 percent, you obviously do not know him.
Seymour you must be a pal of Chris Donovan and his union lackey orchestra led by Swan and rosenberg(Lamont Lackeys)
