The 2026 Connecticut gubernatorial election will take place on November 3, 2026, to elect the governor of Connecticut. Primary elections took place on August 11, 2026.[1]
Incumbent Democratic governor Ned Lamont is running for a third term, winning the Democratic nomination in August 2026.[2] Lamont is one of the most popular governors in the United States, with a 63% approval rating as of October 2025, according to Morning Consult;[3] however, a University of New Hampshire poll from May 2025 found that 44% of Connecticut voters believe he should not run for a third term.[4] State representative Josh Elliott challenged Lamont in the primary as a progressive.[5]
Democratic primary
[edit]While incumbent governor Ned Lamont initially had expressed doubts about running for a third term,[6] he announced that he would run for re-election in November 2025.[7] State representative Josh Elliott had already launched a bid to primary Lamont, believing that Connecticut needed a more progressive leader.[8]
At the Democratic State Convention on May 16, 2026, at The Bushnell in Hartford, Lamont defeated Elliott for the state party endorsement, 1,468 votes (74.6%) to 501 (25.4%). However, Elliott surpassed the 15% of delegates needed to get on the ballot for the primary, which took place on August 11;[9] Lamont was the first incumbent governor to face a primary since Ella Grasso in 1978.
Lamont would go on to win the primary, and the party's endorsement.[2]

[edit]Governor
[edit]At the Republican State Convention on May 16, 2026, at Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, state Sen. Ryan Fazio (R-Greenwich) won the party's endorsement with approximately 92% of delegate votes on the first ballot. Former New York Lt. Gov. Betsy McCaughey received about 8% of the vote, falling well short of the 15% threshold needed to force an August primary, and quickly endorsed Fazio.[41]
In the following months before the convention, Erin Stewart, the former mayor of New Britain, was seen as the frontrunner in a tight race with Fazio. Just a day before the May 15th convention, Stewart suspended her campaign amid reports of alleged misuse of a New Britain city credit card for over $200,000 in personal expenses. Stewart subsequently endorsed Fazio.[42]
