Greenwich Resident Dita Bhargava To Run For CT Treasurer: Report
She had explored whether to mount a campaign to run for governor but has changed gears.
GREENWICH, CT — Dita Bhargava, a Greenwich resident who at one time considered mounting a Democratic gubernatorial campaign, has shifted gears and will run for Connecticut state Treasurer instead, reports the Hartford Courant.
Her reason for switching from gubernatorial to treasurer candidate is because she believes her financial background is better suited to the state's treasurer post, she told the publication.
Bhargava has called a press conference for Monday morning, Feb. 26, in Hartford to formally launch her revamped campaign for the treasurer's position.
