Erin Stewart, former Republican mayor of New Britain, launches gubernatorial campaign, emphasizing blue-collar background and success in Democratic city. She promises no political BS, just real talk in her video, directly challenging Lamonts narrative of Connecticuts financial stability. Stewart faces competition from State Senator Ryan Fazio, with both candidates having elected office experience, a departure from recent cycles of wealthy businessmen as nominees. Independent group supporting Fazio attacks Stewart as anti-Trump, while her campaign video features images of her with former President Donald Trump. The debate over Connecticuts economic health and New Britains revival will be a central theme in the campaign.
