Biden-voting district could send Connecticut’s first Republican to Congress in a decade
DANBURY, Conn. — Rep. Jahana Hayes (D-Conn.) won her seat in Congress in 2018 after campaigning on public school reform and stimulating the economy.
But four years later, after a global pandemic, increased forecasts of a recession, and record-high inflation, Hayes is in a tight race to keep her seat as Republican challenger George Logan leans into an economic pitch to voters with a heavy focus on small towns struggling due to the lack of jobs.
