    <summary type="html"><![CDATA[<p>This afternoon, I received a copy of the letter from Matthew Brennan that he sent to the Secretary of State’s office announcing that he was withdrawing from the primary in his district.  Audrey Blondin wrote,</p>
<blockquote><p>
I would once again like to thank Matt for all of his commitment, dedication &amp; efforts on behalf of our party and the residents of the 30th District, and wish him all the very best for his future endeavors.
</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Mike Renzullo, whom Matt was challenging said,</p>
<blockquote><p>
“I want to thank Matt Brennan.  By challenging me, he has made me a better candidate, and I appreciate that.  I also think Matt shows his character by putting the interests of the party, and of the citizens of the 30th District, ahead of his own.  I know Matt, and I’m confident he will lend his support to our campaign, and help the Democrats take this seat in November.”
</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Matt is a good guy and I wish him well.  Now, it is time to focus on Mike’s campaign.  Those of you that have been reading me regularly know that I’m very excited by Mike’s campaign.  He’s a great candidate.</p>
<p>Until I received the emails about Matt, I was torn about whether to help with Marilyn Moore’s get out the vote efforts on primary day in Bridgeport, Trumbull and Monroe, or if I should head up to the 30th district to help out Mike.</p>
<p>For more information about Mike's campaign, be sure to check <a href=http://renzullo4senate.com/>Mike Renzullo for Senate</a>.</p>
