For Malloy, Foley votes more demographic than geographic

The common wisdom, as the 2014 race for governor reaches its climax, is that Republican Tom Foley will clean up in the heavily Republican suburbs, while Democratic Gov. Dannel P. Malloy will win big in the cities. But is the woman in the vintage Jaguar driving west on East Putnam Avenue in Greenwich a solid bet to vote for Foley, from nearby Khakum Wood? Is the guy driving the landscaper's red pickup willing to give Stamford native Malloy a second four-year term? While the key to the 2014 gubernatorial race may be who voters are, not where they live, both Malloy and Foley will depend on their bases.
