On October 7, the Republican nominee for Connecticut Comptroller, Sharon McLaughlin, debated the Green Party nominee for that office, Rolf Maurer. The Democratic nominee, Kevin Lembo, did not choose to participate. See this story. The part of the story about the Comptroller’s debate is past the midway point in the article. Most of the story is about the proposed Treasurer’s debate, which did not take place because the Democratic nominee did not appear. There are only two candidates on the Connecticut ballot for Treasurer, the Democratic and Republican nominees.
