MASHANTUCKET, Conn. (WTNH) — With Election Day just about six months away, Connecticut Republicans kicked off their two-day convention Friday at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket.
Connecticut Republicans endorsed businessman Bob Stefanowski as their candidate for governor on Friday night. He was the party’s 2018 candidate but lost to Democrat Ned Lamont in a three-way race.
Stefanowski, 59, overwhelmingly won the GOP’s backing on Friday.
“We did it,” Stefanowski told the cheering crowd in the Premier Ballroom at Foxwoods Resort Casino. “What a difference four years makes. People are going to vote for a new vision, a change in the way we do things.”
