HARTFORD, Conn. – Gov. Dannel P. Malloy did his best Wednesday to brush off questions about a federal judge’s decision dismissing parts of the Democratic Governors Association lawsuit against the state.
Malloy, who raised money for the DGA and benefited from about $1.7 million in advertising from the DGA for his 2010 campaign, said he’s not investing any time “on this particular subject matter.”
“I’ll take a bye on getting into this any further,” Malloy told reporters. “The DGA thought they were doing the right thing bringing the action. The judge thinks at the current time that they don’t have standing and, quite frankly, go to a lawyer and get a good explanation.”
Malloy became the DGA’s finance chair in 2011 and helped it raise $20 million that year. His tenure as finance chair has since concluded, but he remains an active member of the group which by all accounts had planned to spend money on Malloy’s re-election campaign this year.
