During this past quarter, the DeStefano campaign saw a dramatic increase in funds raised from almost every county in Connecticut – helping to fuel an approximate 60 % increase in total funds raised compared to the last quarter of 2005. In addition, last quarter the campaign increased the number of contributors by approximately 15%. The DeStefano campaign has now received contributions from 5,227 people, up 674 from the quarter before.“This has been a tremendously successful fundraising quarter,” said Derek Slap – campaign spokesperson. “More and more families from across the state are joining our team and we have seen dramatic increases in the number of contributors - and total funds raised - from almost every county, including Fairfield, Middlesex, Tolland, Litchfield, and Hartford. We continue to have more resources than our Democratic opponent, and there’s no doubt we will be better equipped to win the Democratic primary.”The DeStefano campaign has received the endorsement of dozens of elected officials, including U.S. Rep. John Larson, U.S. Rep. Rosa DeLauro, Lt. Gov. Kevin Sullivan, and most recently Fairfield First Selectman Kenneth Flatto – who is endorsing DeStefano tonight (April 10th).
