Just heard on NBC here in New York, Jodi Rell has announced she will not run for reelection.

Here's the story.

We know Ned Lamont is running, this could be another big Dem pickup with California, Hawaii, Rhode Island, Vermont and Arizona...but Democrats have been having trouble winning Connecticut governor's races recently, having not won one since 1986.

Weicker

It bears mentioning that some of those races were won by Independent, former liberal Republican, Lowell Weicker, so it's not like all those governors were right-wing.
