Connecticut
Gov. Ned Lamont (D) faces a re-match campaign with his close 2018 competitor, financial executive Bob Stefanowski (R). Polling suggests that the Governor will well exceed his 49-46% victory margin of four years ago. Surveys also tell us that GOP challenger Leora Levy is on the edge of competitiveness against Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D), but the incumbent is poised to again prevail.
The state’s hotly contested electoral contest comes in the northwestern 5th Congressional District where Rep. Jahana Hayes (D-Wolcott) is in a tight re-election battle with former state Senator George Logan (R). National GOP officials are high on Mr. Logan, so we can expect a maximum Republican turnout effort in an attempt to convert a strong campaign effort into an upset victory.
