Rell May Run Again

Governor Jodi Rell says she likes what she has accomplished as Governor, and may consider running again in 2010. You can read the article here.

Rell was elected to her first full term last year crushing New Haven Mayor John DeStefano. Many believed that she would not run for re-election in 2010, however she has now said she may open an exploratory committee next month to consider the option.

House Speaker Jim Amann announced that he has interest in running for the Democratic nomination for Govrnor. Other names that have been rumored are DeStefano, Stamford Mayor Dan Malloy, Secretary of State Susan Bysiewicz, and Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, who is considered the front runner.

If Rell decides not to run, some Republicans that have been rumored as candidates are Lt. Governor Mike Fedele and former Congressman Rob Simmons.
