CT GOP Gubernatorial Forum Hosted by the Southington Republican Town Committee!
The event will be hosted by the Southington Republican Town Committee. Republican candidates for governor will convene for the GOP Candidate Forum on July 16th in Southington.
Republicans have a very strong slate of candidates in the race for Connecticut's next governor, which makes choosing the best candidate a challenge. The intent of this forum will be to help educate primary voters on each candidate’s platform and plans to turn the state around.
