STAMFORD Mayor David Martin said he never seriously considered not running for re-election for the position he has held for seven years.
The 31st mayor of Stamford will seek to win the upcoming election for what would be his third consecutive term. If elected, he’d continue to do the job he professed to love.
“As demanding and at times frustrating as this job is, I truly love it,” he said. “We’ve accomplished a great deal. I think there is more that we can do and more that we should do, and I think I am the person who is in the best position to do that with my experience and knowledge.”
