@nbcconnecticut: Connecticut Democrats are looking at historic margins in the legislature. Here's a breakdown of the balance of power. #ctpolitics #elections2026 #connecticut #elections #democrats

talkjock :

CTis screwed!

Finnie17 :

We are home

Pagsn :

I am guessing higher taxes and more money to Eversource…. That’s how they govern… 🫠

user8462401356227 :

Wow let the affordability work begin! I’m not holding my breath.

dino1987 :

Easy … spend spend and spend

Elemeno P :

Lifeon_wednesdays :

Wow! Amazing

D87jm :

please please please just actually get stuff done with this advantage! they literally have no excuses for not getting anything done anymore

✨PossibilityMaven.info✨ :

CT Dems are also a split party. I am excited for a larger progressive wing

John snow :

CT is still liberal so they ain't going to do thing like a progressive wealth tax, Medicaid for all or anything FDR would like.

Kalob_karinna :

People don’t understand how politics work if we had a republican governor he would’ve HAD to work with the democrats to get anything done

monkeyc122 :

They need to be wise with what they do. This is the Democrats opportunity to win favor with all and become “the party” relegating the Republicans to the past

LifeWithRilla :

They’re not veto proof and we still control the Supreme Court and it means nothing will get done for 2 years

sugarrush_bakehouse :

Hopefully hold everyone to account…. Including EVERSOURCE

Snow Mountain Man :

I just don't buy it. everyone in the state is tired of ever increasing costs and taxes, but they vote overwhelmingly for the party that has led the way to these high costs and taxes? the dems have had unilateral control of every state office and institution for decades and things have only gotten worse in that time.

CTguy123 :

So do something to make the state more affordable

Jo Cruzie Reads📚♥️ :

First & foremost change leadership. Replace Jeffries & Schumer.

Ratboy :

We don’t want Shumer or Jeffries playing by the old rules. We want the local Democratic Party to hold their leaders accountable

Reach10424 :

they're going to do what they've been doing with the majority of power anyways. just keep fucking us. are electric bills will go up. taxes will go up. I guarantee it.

Joan Russell :

taxes will skyrocket. watch for unemployment. sex trafficking. etc

user5457012257335 :

DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN RUNNING CONNECTICUT INTO THE GROUND AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO IT HEARTBREAKING REALLY 💔

joemckirdy :

The Republican candidate in my area was literally running on tampons in bathrooms which is obviously BS about Harris/Walz campaign in 2024. Easiest vote for Dem.

Bonez95ct :

Democrats have no reason not to reign in eversource and ui - no excuses

trivialcommenter :

Can’t wait to subsidize the lazy. Guess I’ll buy some more homes and raise rents to afford the future of CT
