Lamont, Stefanowski on pace to double spending in rematch
Connecticut’s two wealthy self-funded candidates, Gov. Ned Lamont and Republican Bob Stefanowski, each have spent twice as much money on their 2022 rematch as they had at this point in their 2018 campaigns. Reports filed late Tuesday night for the three-month period ending Sept. 30 showed the Democratic governor and Republican challenger spending at a record pace: $14.8 million by Lamont’s campaign and $9.2 million by Stefanowski’s. At the same point in 2018, the spending was $7.36 million by Lamont and $4.28 million by Stefanowski.
