Esty Re-elected in Fifth District

U.S. Rep. Elizabeth Esty has been elected to a second term in Congress.

She fought a tough battle against Republican Mark Greenberg in the 5th District and Greenberg called Esty around 10 p.m. to concede.

"I wish him well. I congratulate him, it was a hard-fought race. He's been running a long time, he's deeply committed to this country."

In an email to supporters, Greenberg said he will stay involved, but not as a candidate in the future.

"While my days running for office are over, I will always and forever be an American interested in our country's future, our state's future, and our children's future," he said in the email.
