The Republican candidate has secured 10 endorsements, including one from retiring First Selectman Bill Brennan.

“It has been my privilege to work with the two candidates currently seeking the position of first selectman and CEO of the Town of Wilton. I have enormous respect for both individuals, as the job is not easy,” Brennan said in a statement.

“Due to [Vanderslice’s] demonstrated financial management skills and seven years of hands-on budget development and capital investment experience on the Board of Finance, I believe she is clearly the more qualified candidate.”

  • Gail Lavielle, state Representative for the 143rd District
  • Zelie Pfozheimer, former president of the Wilton Playshop
  • State Sen. Toni Boucher
  • Warren Serenbetz, Board of Finance Chairman
