Good post.
Good place for an ad!!
Ct5, 6% loss.
I expect defeat in CT gov. Maybe the voters will surprise me
Thanks.
On one of the Fox programs - Hannity, Carlson, Ingragam or maybe Levin, they showed some instant response tracking polls like what Frank Luntz does.
As they played various ads, quotes, etc., it would show the red line spiking and the blue line dipping, or visa versa.
Anyway, there was also a line for independents, and it followed whichever way the red line went.
I took that as an indication that independants have a lot more in common with Republicans in this election cycle.
Am I right to feel encouraged by that?

I will be posting this in its own thread so that people can have it to see. We will know a LOT about how things are going if anything changes in blocks.
Refer back to previous post
Turnout was 7400. Must be a record
Also, usually goes slightly Dem. But GOP won easily. Blue collar white town.
So yes, all that extra silent Trump crowd came out.
There are just too many white wealthy liberal suburbs in this state
Was Stephanowski your choice in the primary?
County results are in interesting. Hartford was worst for Steph and the biggest margin but not highest% for Lamont cause third party got 6% there, what is he an ex-RINO?
Fairfield gave the highest % to Lamont. Fairfield is more dem than the state now, Malloy won it last time but by a hair.
Steph won NEW HAVEN County, 33K more votes than Foley in 14 and Lamont got fewer votes than Malloy. Lost in New London (also lost in 2014, was a 2010 win for Foley)
I was for Herbst in primary
Hartford Cnty is home of Oz
Fairfield city is Neds home
New haven cnty is Stefs home
Markleys grassroots is based in new haven County
Plus Southington n Berlin.
Maybe the Markley team gets credit for the win in Plainville
Now we can say that Stef was a Lemon.
His campaign did well on identity ing and getting his vote out. But the candidate had little appeal. A decent candidate would have won by 5%
A guy who never did anything political before decided to run for gov ... Now he’s through and won’t be heard from again.
A comedy. CT is a comedy
3rd party OZ is a former Republican, but he took votes from ned
Sounds like Bruce Rauner, except he won, the first time.
Political career
Prior to his 2014 run for Illinois governor, Rauner served as an advisor to Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel.
Meh. I think he was more of a “donor” to Rahmbo. If you give enough money they will at least pretend to listen to your “advice”.
But donating a crapload is a political action in and of itself, so you are correct that the comparison is not precise.
