Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal will stay in the race for U.S. Senate, according to reports, in spite of the controversy over a New York Times report that he lied about his military service record during the Vietnam War.
“He is 100 percent staying in the race,” said Kate Hansen, a spokeswoman for the Connecticut Democratic Party told Bloomerg News. “It’s not even a question.”
Blumenthal, 64, scheduled a press conference today at a Veterans of Foreign Wars post in West Hartford, Connecticut.
