The governor plans to come to Nica’s Market Thursday to place an order — for a new mayor.
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy is scheduled to make his appearance at the Orange St. eatery at 5 p.m. to endorse the mayoral candidacy of Democrat Toni Harp.
Harp, a state senator who co-chairs the legislature’s powerful Appropriations Committee, has worked closely with the Malloy administration. So has fellow New Haven Democrat Martin Looney, the State Senate leader and a top Harp supporter.
Harp squares off against Justin Elicker, Henry Fernandez, and Kermit Carolina in a Sept. 10 Democratic primary.
