“Jessica Mayorga has not been a full-time resident of New Haven for even 14 days, but she is already serving as the voice of a mayor who has been in office for more than 14 years.

She steps into the job of mayoral spokeswoman at a critical time for Mayor John DeStefano Jr., who has drawn political heat in recent weeks following the arrest of two New Haven Police Department officers last month. The appointment of Mayorga, the 1997 Miss Cuba, may also help DeStefano win the support of Latinos in New Haven, though some members of the community expressed doubt that a new spokeswoman can change the political allegiances of neighborhoods that have not had historically strong relationships with City Hall.”
