Tom For Mayor Event

Submitted by b1naryp0et t3_11m4zp5 in newhaven

Hey all, my mentor, Tom Goldenberg, is running for Mayor of New Haven, and he's having a meet and greet today at East Rock Market to talk about his platform.

He's a swell guy who cares for his community. I hope to see some of y'all there!

He held one in westville-good stuff. He’s the top contender to dethrone Elicker (who I hear eats Dominos pizza).

Is Tom Goldenberg the one who swooped in here after years working in NYC consulting firms known for being egregiously unscrupulous in their practices and the organizations they represent?

Was initially interested in his candidacy, but THIS is where he started to lose my interest. Obviously, you need to be able to support your family but how out of touch to do you have to be to state that as a reason to become mayor....for the salary??!!

He was asked during an appearance Thursday on WNHH FM’s ​“Dateline New Haven” program why he is interested in running for the position — rather than starting out running for, say, alder.

He responded that leaving McKinsey will leave him without a full-time salary.

“For me to give up my job that is supporting my family, I need to be able to at least replace it with a salary,” he said.
