Introducing convention coverage



This is a space where local people attending the Democratic and Republican national conventions can share their experiences with those visiting http://www.myrecordjournal.com/.

State House Majority Leader Christopher G. Donovan, Meriden Democratic Town Committee Chairwoman Mildred Torres-Ferguson, Meriden city councilor Hilda Santiago, 17-year-old Mia Lilienthal, of Meriden, and Wallingford's 22-year-old Sam Carmody will be nice enough to tell you all about the Democratic National Convention in Denver. We may even be lucky and get them to submit pictures!

The Democratic convention kicks off Aug. 25 and ends Aug. 28.

Jerry Farrell Jr., a Wallingford resident and the commissioner of the state Department of Consumer Protection, will keep us updated on the Republican convention, which is Sept. 1 through Sept. 4. We hope he sends pictures too!

So, stay tuned. Campaign season is about to officially begin, and we have six people waiting to fill you in on the details.
