Foulkes Lands Key Cumberland Endorsement
from Providence News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Helena Foulkes just landed a major political blow to Dan McKee’s reelection hopes — a key endorsement from the Cumberland Democratic Town Committee, where McKee once served as mayor for 12 years. The committee, signaling a desire for change, praised Foulkes’s leadership while acknowledging McKee’s service. This move follows a wave of similar endorsements for Foulkes, while McKee’s campaign remains quiet — despite running ads attacking her past at CVS. Both candidates are pouring cash into TV ads ahead of the September 9 primary, where the Democratic winner will face Republicans and independents in the general election. Meanwhile, Cumberland Democrats also shifted support away from the incumbent lieutenant governor and backed a city councilor — and endorsed an attorney general candidate, though all contenders in that race are polling under 10%.
