Edward Miner Lamont Jr.[1] (born January 3, 1954) is an American businessman and politician serving since January 2019 as the 89th governor of Connecticut.[2][3] A member of the Democratic Party, he served as a Greenwich selectman from 1987 to 1989 and was the party's nominee for the United States Senate in 2006, losing to incumbent Joe Lieberman.[4][a]
Lamont ran for governor in 2010, but lost the Democratic primary to former Stamford mayor Dannel Malloy, who won the general election. He ran again in 2018, winning the nomination and defeating Republican Bob Stefanowski in the general election.[4] He faced Stefanowski again in 2022, defeating him by a wider margin.[5] As governor, Lamont signed legislation legalizing cannabis,[6] sports betting, and online gambling.[7][8][9]
