If a tad self-consciously, Republican Bob Stefanowski used puns and free “diesel donuts” at Donut Crazy shops on Friday to remind voters that Gov. Ned Lamont did nothing to stop a diesel fuel tax increase from taking effect.
“OK, so here’s the phrase: What’s happening in Connecticut today is crazy. And Gov. Lamont is leaving the people of Connecticut with just the crumbs,” Stefanowski said, recording a campaign social-media spot in West Hartford. “I know it’s a bit of a goofy saying, but there is some truth to it.”
“These social issues are important don’t get me wrong,” Stefanowski said. “But when I go out to people, they’re talking about inflation, government spending, gas prices, and this governor right now is ignoring it.”
