STRATFORD — Joe Paul, who was running for mayor of Stratford as an unaffiliated candidate, abruptly announced on Wednesday that he is suspending his campaign and that he would be supporting Democrat Stephanie Philips on Election Day. Paul, a registered Democrat, came in a distant second in the Democratic primary on Sept. 12; the final vote was: Philips, 1,320, Paul, 628; and Len Petruccelli, 380. He had announced prior to that primary that he’d be waging an unaffiliated run for the mayor’s seat if he didn’t win the primary. But the primary results fell far short of what he was hoping for.
