It's Time For Something Different
ERIN STEWART – REPUBLICAN FOR GOVERNOR
"I'm running for Governor because the clowns in Hartford have run our state into the ground. We have great people in Connecticut, but we don't have real leadership in Hartford. Connecticut has been run by the same insiders for decades who just manage our decline - it's not good enough! We can demand better, let's try something different - and that starts with a different kind of Governor."

“Let’s face it, Connecticut is in decline. Taxes and the cost of utilities are simply too high, young families, like mine, struggle every day to make ends meet. We are losing businesses and talent to other states, and we have no long term vision of where we, as a state, want to go. The politicians in Hartford like to shrug and exclaim “well, we are the land of steady habits” in a feeble attempt to distract from their own failures. Our state is stagnant, because our leadership is stagnant. The time is now to change course, we cannot afford to delay. We need something different to foster in an era of growth and opportunity for Connecticut. I’m running for Governor because something different starts with a different type of Governor.”
