Ted Kennedy Jr. joins Murphy, DeLauro in New Haven | CT Senate 2012:

Ted Kennedy Jr. will join Chris Murphy and Rosa DeLauro at an event at a New Haven senior center Friday at 1 p.m.

Audrey Tyson, Ward 29 chairperson, said that she had been trying to get Murphy and DeLauro to come to Park Ridge III at 40 Austin St. in New Haven, for about a month.

DeLauro had confirmed, but Tyson said “two days after the hurricane, on Wednesday, I got a call that said Chris was not going to make it.”

Then, on Thursday night, an email alerted Tyson that Murphy’s schedule had changed.

“Then I got another email saying ‘can Ted Kennedy Jr. come too?’” she said. “I said, ‘Of course he can come.’”

Tyson said mostly seniors have been invited. “These people, they will vote,” she said.
