Polling is meaningless. The silent majority are gonna go heavily for Stefanowski. OZ is a joke and not a viable candidate. People are sick of the Democrats in Connecticut. Lamont is a horrible candidate and just a Malloy clone. Connecticut can't handle the tax and spending that we have been stuck with all these years. Stefanowski might not be a great candidate but he is better than electing another Liberal Democrat. The legislature needs to finally turnover to Republicans. We need a shot and finally making some serious changes to our state. Voting Democrat has put Connecticut in this downward spiral. Time for a real change. Stefanowski at least talks about cutting taxes and spending cuts. Lamont just wants tolls and more taxes.

There is, quite simply, no data to back this up. This has never actually happened, and before you point to 2016, the polls mostly got it right. In the states Trump won, there was only a couple percentage point difference than the forecasted Clinton lead. You can be wrong by 4%. It's hard to get it wrong by 8%, which is around the average that Lamont is expected to have over Stefanowski.

Polling agencies have a lot more data and have researched this at length than some notion of a "silent majority" that makes people feel good about their candidate.

Oz has the most realistic plans and is the most in tune candidate with State issues

Oz does mention tax cuts, out of the box thinking to generate revenue, and ways to grow the economy

Polling doesn't mean anything. Hillary was supposed to win. She was the chosen won. It was her right, her time. Guess what, People hated her and didn't vote for her. Trump won because Hillary was disliked by many voters. Polling data had it as a blow out, run away victory. Polling is obsolete. Voters don't have land lines anymore. Silent majority is there big time today in politics. Connecticut is a deep blue state but it is changing slowly. We have no choice. Voters can't afford to keep electing Democrats and running the state into the ground. Stefanowski is like voting for anybody but Lamont and the Liberal agenda. OZ is a non factor like most 3rd party candidates.

Lamont is not a liberal, he's a another DINO with a 9 out of 10 DINO score.


There's no silent majority in CT. I think you meant to say silent minority.

One person alone can not raise taxes. So when the tax raises come like you think be sure to blame all of the legislature that went along with it.

Hopefully with Oz in these debates will be a factor. He has similar credentials to the two big dogs. He knows his constituents. He is real. He has plans that no other candidate seems to consider. Has the best economical plan to bring CT back!

Link to the DINO scorecard? I would like to see how he measures up against Malloy.

He;s only going to be a spoiler for Stefanowski. Oz is a complete fool and probably the biggest political ***** CT has seen in the last 30 years. A real ***** would have left their abuser(s) by now and seen the light.


The more he talks the deeper he digs himself into a hole.

Malloy is a 10 on the DINO scorecard. you can use that as a comparison or maybe Bill Clinton. Bill is the number one DINO of all time.


Max DINO score is 10.

You know except that almost 3 million more people voted for her than from Trump... She literally had more people vote for her.
