Lamont is taking visible action on education funding by creating a new commission, while also running for a third term in 2026. On the Democratic side, Josh Elliott is organizing a primary challenge and seeking delegates and public financing. Republicans are also ramping up: McCaughey filed a pipeline-related lawsuit, and Erin Stewart launched a $200,000 TV ad buy. Lamont’s active governing moves and a Democratic primary challenge add some intra-party uncertainty on the Democratic side. GOP candidates’ legal and ad efforts signal an intensifying nomination fight, but the net effect on party-of-winner odds is unclear from this news alone.

A woman detailing sexual assault claims against Eric Swalwell spoke out Tuesday in Beverly Hills, alleging the former Congressman drugged and raped her in 2018.

Two complaints allege Rep. Eric Swalwell violated immigration and employment laws to keep his nanny in the U.S. using campaign funds as payment.
"We have to do something differently, and we are going to kick Ned Lamont to the curb. Eight years of him is far too much,” said former New Britain mayor Erin Stewart.

“When you have one-party rule that controls every single lever of state government, you get a level of arrogance, which we've seen right here in Connecticut,” said Sen. Harding.
