Looking at what’s still out, I am confident that Connecticut will have a Governor Ned Lamont next year.

Fun fact: Joe Lieberman was set to be on his GOP opponent’s transition committee.

I am so grateful to Connecticut for making @NedLamont our next Governor. He’s going to work for every single one of us - whether you voted for him or not. He’ll be a breath of fresh air and I can’t wait to get down to work with him.
