Oh god, “Miss Debbie Downer”. She never met an issue she couldn’t criticize the Democrats or do nothing about. Just more of the same unelectable Republican candidates.

Unless Lamont really screws up in the next year, I highly doubt Themis has a shot at beating him. Jay

Everyone here seems to be drooling over Ned, but he’s the one who signed the damaging Police Accountability Bill when polls showed the majority in CT did not wish for that to be signed. He’s also the one who will quite possibly sign the Zoning bill.

He showed the state’s residents he cares more about falling in step with his national party over the wants and needs of his own voters. We’ll see how the zoning bill plays out, but he hasn’t exactly been advocating against it because, party loyalty and all.

There was nowhere to go after Malloy but up. Lamont ain’t that great.

He handled the crisis admirably. Didn't wait for word from his counterpart neighbors to act on re-opening. Took the bull by the horns while they carried on with the grandstanding even after the latest CDC recos. I don't see anything too over-dramatically geared to the hard left. It's a sensible State.

As I've stated before I think he's done a good job. He didn't illicit any excitement for me when replacing Malloy, but I have been pleasantly surprised and as of now would support him for another 4 years. Especially since I have no idea what his opposition will run on. But I have a pretty good guess it'll be more cut cut cut pandering without any real details, hopefully I'm wrong.

Um how about no. If you are married to an executive of Eversource the likelihood of being elected is nil

I have some issues with Ned regarding constrictions of Civil Liberties during COVID , and the Police Accountability Legislation among others.

However overall he did a decent job handling the crisis , and CT appears to be in a strong position to do well in the future. I will wait and see what his opponents have to stay, but so far, I think he may deserve reelection.

Ned Lamont for sure and I like his focus on jobs and modest persona compared to Cuomo and Newsom.

He’s an absolute rockstar next to those jokers, and Whitmer.
