‘ENDORSEMENT,' ‘SUPPORT,' what difference does it make? That's Rodney Elliott's excuse for a recent 'miscommunication' or 'oversight' regarding his endorsements for state representative in the 16th Middlesex District. In a fully transcribed interview with The Sun last week, Elliott noted that the 'Lowell Police Department provided support' to his campaign. The comment received some backlash, as neither the police nor any city department endorses candidates for office. Elliott is now backpedaling, claiming that he did not say something he was, in fact, on the record saying.
