A new Quinnipiac poll in Connecticut finds Gov. Dannel Malloy (D) with a 24% to 68% approval rating — “one of the lowest approval ratings ever recorded for a governor in any of the nine states surveyed by the Quinnipiac University Poll.”
Fellow Governor Calls Pence a ‘Bigot’
Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy (D) lashed out at Indiana Gov. Mike Pence (R) in an interview with MSNBC and called him “a bigot” for supporting a law he says allows discrimination against gays and lesbians.
Said Malloy: “When you see a bigot you have to call him on it.”
He added: “The reality is the governor’s not a stupid man, but he’s done stupid things. Signing this law and, quite frankly, promoting this law knowing exactly what it was going to do was an incredibly stupid thing for him to do.”
