WATERFORD, CT — It was a historic night for Democrats across the county and also in Connecticut as the top candidates for state office all rolled to victory.

On Election Day, Gov. Ned Lamont, Democrat, received 646,742 votes, and his Republican challenger Ryan Fazio earned 454,488 with about 90 percent of the full vote total.

Democrats swept all five congressional seats once again, with Rosa DeLauro, Jim Himes, Luke Bronin, Joseph Courtney, and Jahana Hayes all winning.

Also winning reelection were Democrats, Attorney General William Tong, Secretary of State Stephanie Thomas, Treasurer Erick Russell, and Comptroller Sean Scanlon, according to the Secretary of State's website.
