Jimmy Tickey, a Shelton Planning and Zoning Commissioner and Rep. Rosa DeLauro’s campaign manager, is attending the 2016 Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia — and he’s checking in daily with the Valley Indy to react to the news of the day.
Click play to hear an interview conducted Thursday morning.
In this episode, we asked Tickey questions about:
— President Barack Obama’s speech endorsing Hillary Clinton
— How the president’s “America is already great” message conforms with other speakers who, for example, decried the prevalence of gun violence in the country.
— Whether Donald Trump, dubbed the “chaos candidate” by the Washington Post, is overshadowing the Democrats’ messaging at the convention.
