Mayor Carfora stated in a news release, "Ed is the consummate professional and a trusted friend. He has been an integral part of my previous campaigns, making him the obvious choice. Combine that experience with his decades of dominance in the media industry and deep relationships statewide across radio, television, print, and digital platforms, Ed brings invaluable insight and advanced ideas to our campaign."

Carfora also addressed Sabatino's current position with the Town, stating, "We all know Ed holds a position with our Town, and it's important to note that he will not address campaign issues during his workday. We are committed to maintaining the highest ethical standards and ensuring that our campaign remains separate from official Town business."

Expressing his commitment to the Town, Sabatino said in a news release, "I have loved living in this community my entire life, and I take immense pride in how our Town’s image has flourished under Mayor Carfora's leadership. East Haven’s future has never looked better, frankly, it’s been a long time since I have seen an administration so focused on our residents’ quality of life.” Sabatino added, “Mayor Carfora's measured and appropriate response during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as his support for our dedicated public servants, including the police and fire departments, is well-documented. His commitment to education and supporting our teachers has been made abundantly clear. I am honored to be part of his campaign team. I am looking forward to working with the Mayor and his team on communicating our vision for even more success for our residents in the coming years.”
