CROMWELL, Conn. – Democratic Gov. Dannel P. Malloy tried his best to put a contentious re-election campaign behind him Tuesday as he addressed the Middlesex Chamber of Commerce.
“At this point, four years into this, I own this stuff,” Malloy said.
In the same breath Malloy acknowledged that things aren’t perfect — a reflection of the deficit and the economy he inherited when he took office in 2011.
“We had a yawning deficit over a two-year period that was close to $7 billion,” Malloy said. “We hadn’t seen job creation in 22 years on a net basis. We hadn’t invested in our housing stock in a generation. We hadn’t invested in transportation in two generations.”
