Summary
Connecticut voters are deciding the 2026 governor primaries, with Democratic Gov. Ned Lamont pursuing a third term and facing a challenger for his party’s nomination.
Ryan Fazio, a state senator, is unopposed in the Republican primary, making Lamont’s Democratic contest the state’s main intraparty race.
Expected vote totals are estimates that can change as more ballots are counted, based on early-vote data and Election Day reports from local election officials.
The results will determine whether Lamont advances toward a potential third term against Fazio in the November general election.
