Aaron Regunberg, announced he is running for Lt. Gov. in 2022
Aaron Regunberg, arguably the leading progressive in Rhode Island politics, lost the Democratic primary for Lt. Governor by 2,466 votes in 2018.
He lost to Dan McKee and in the next few weeks, McKee will be sworn in as Governor succeeding Gina Raimondo, who is poised to serve as President-Elect Joe Biden s Secretary of Commerce.
About the race, CNN wrote:
The 27-year-old Regunberg supported Sanders in 2016 and will have the Working Families Party, one of the progressive organizations that helped lead the successful statewide charge to expand sick leave in the state, boosting his bid. (Regunberg sponsored the House version of the leave bill.)
