West Hartford Democrats announced the endorsement of Tiffani McGinnis for the 18th District House seat being vacated by Jillian Gilchrest.

Submitted

Town Councilor Tiffani McGinnis was endorsed by the Democratic Party for state representative in Connecticut’s 18th House District, which includes part of West Hartford.

“I am honored to receive the Democratic Party endorsement for state representative of the 18th district,” McGinnis said. “I’m running because I believe people are looking for leadership grounded in common sense, integrity, and accountability. They want leaders who understand the pressures they’re facing, who support strong public schools and safe communities, and who are focused on solving problems rather than scoring political points.”

“If elected,” McGinnis added, “one of my most important roles will be as an advocate for the 18th District and West Hartford, working to ensure we receive our fair share of funding for education, infrastructure, public safety, and other services families rely on every day.”

Tiffani and her husband, Matthew, have lived in West Hartford for over 10 years and have three adult children. Before joining the Town Council, she served as Vice Chair of the West Hartford Democratic Town Committee, Campaign Treasurer for Lieutenant Governor Susan Bysiewicz, Campaign Organizer for Biden/Harris, and Campaign Manager on several other local and state campaigns.

“The experience I have, combined with my degree in healthcare administration, small business ownership, and public service, gives me a well-rounded perspective that I think will benefit the residents of the 18th District,” McGinnis added. “Between now and Election Day, November 3, I look forward to earning the vote of the residents of the 18th district.”
