Mr. Markley Makes His Move.

State Senator Joseph Markley (R-Southington) has begun to solicit support for a bid for Republican state chairman. Markley and others are seeking to replace failed incumbent Jerry Labriola months before his term ends in the spring.

Markley and other aspirants and conspirators aspire to perform the take down in December at a special meeting of the Republican State Central Committee.

Markley would draw his support from the most conservative elements of the GOP organization.
