NORWALK, Conn. – Larry Cafero will not be running for governor.
The Republican Norwalk state representative and House minority leader announced his via a Tweet Thursday morning.
Cafero is in his fourth term as minority leader. He was elected to the House in 1992 to represent the 142nd District. Previous to that he was a member of the Board of Education for six years and left his post as Chairman to begin his career in state politics.
Sounds like a smart decision. Running for governor would be a brutal amount of work, with a limited chance of victory, while running for re-election would be much easier, with much better odds.
@OT – I disagree with you on this one. Mr. Cafero should have run and he would have won – this state is in a sorry mess and we need to get the budget and taxes under control, get meaningful jobs back to the state, and stop runaway spending. Just days ago the dems were bragging on giving almost $2,000,000 of our tax dollars to the Maritime Aquarium who owes us $50 million and to the Globe Theatre.

Run, Larry, Run!!!
Thanks for the compliment! I know we don’t always agree, but I think the one thing most of us agree…
@Alex Knopp: The fact that you’re defending these events as justifying the need for a few dozen parking spaces… ……
We shouldn’t let the minority party’s voluminous complaints, nor the egregiousness of the proposed 4-year-term, distract us from the fact…
That’s only part of the problem with the residents here. Jesus could run as a Democrat and still wouldn’t get…
Great letter David. Thanks for sharing
