Candidates

Democrat: Ned Lamont

On August 8, Greenwich businessman Ned Lamont received 52% of the vote in the statewide Democratic Primary for one of Connecticut's seats in the United States Senate. He defeated incumbent Senator Joe Lieberman, who ran in the November election as a petitioning candidate of the Connecticut for Lieberman party line. In order to get onto the primary ballot on May 19, 2006, Lamont received 33% of the vote at the Democratic State Convention, well above the 15% threshold needed to appear on the primary ballot without having to collect signatures.^[1] Sean Smith, who at the time was the campaign manager for Senator Lieberman, dismissed his performance, claiming that many delegates at the convention saw the endorsement question as a "free vote" to "register displeasure with Lieberman without it costing them anything," and speculated that those voters would return to Lieberman in the August primary. Lieberman dismissed Smith as his campaign manager the morning after Lieberman's primary defeat on August 8th.^[2] Image File history File links NedLamont2006. ...

Lamont differed from Lieberman on various issues. He opposed the Iraq War and the USA Patriot Act, supported same-sex marriage and universal health care, opposed the recent creditor-friendly changes to U.S. bankruptcy law, opposed federal intervention in cases such as Terri Schiavo's, opposed the federal earmark system (i.e. pork barrel projects), and said he would have led the charge against the Samuel Alito nomination.^[3] (Although Lieberman was one of 41 Democrats who voted against the Alito confirmation, he was one of 18 Democrats to vote for cloture. If cloture did not pass, a vote on the confirmation would have been blocked (unless Republicans had taken the controversial step of invoking the so-called "nuclear option").^[4]^[5] For other uses, see Iraq war (disambiguation). ...

Republican: Alan Schlesinger

On May 20, 2006, Connecticut Republicans nominated former Derby Mayor Alan Schlesinger. In July, it was revealed that he was involved in inappropriate gambling activities: Schlesinger gambled under the alias "Alan Gold" to avoid detection as a card counter. On July 21, the Hartford Courant reported that Schlesinger had been sued by two New Jersey casinos for gambling debts. Schlesinger quickly faced fire from state party officials and some, including Connecticut Governor Jodi Rell, called on him to withdraw.^[6] Connecticut GOP chairman George Gallo had considered previous Republican Senate candidate Jack Orchulli as a possible replacement if Schlesinger had withdrawn.^[7] On July 24, however, Courant colummist Kevin Rennie suggested former State Senator Bill Aniskovich of Branford — who was defeated in 2004 while seeking his eighth term — would replace Schlesinger if he withdrew.^[8] Other possible replacements included U.S. Attorney Kevin O'Connor, State Senator John McKinney of Fairfield and Derby state representative Themis Klarides.^[9] Image File history File links AlanSchlesinger2006. ...

The day after losing in the primary, Lieberman fired the majority of his campaign staff including his campaign manager^[10] in order to include more Republicans in the campaign for the general election.^[11] In United States and other democracies, political campaigns larger than a few individuals generally include a campaign manager whose role is to coordinate the campaigns operations. ...

As a Democratic stronghold, Connecticut's Senate seat is considered safe to remain as a Democratic seat by political analysts,^[17]^[18] but Lieberman's continued support for the Iraq War, Patriot Act, and other conservative and Bush administration policies made him vulnerable to a Democratic primary challenger. On March 13, 2006, Ned Lamont announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination. Early polling showed Lieberman with as much as a 46 point lead,^[19] but subsequent polls showed Lamont gaining until just weeks before the primary Lamont took the lead.^[20] The final polls were shown to be accurate when Lamont defeated Lieberman 51.79% to 48.21%.^[21] However, in his concession speech, Lieberman announced that he would stand by his prior statements that he'd run as an independent if he lost the Democratic primary.^[22] Edward Miner Lamont, Jr. ...

General election campaign

Lieberman's candidacy in Connecticut for Lieberman party

On June 12, Ned Lamont began running radio ads promising if he lost the primary to endorse Lieberman, challenging Lieberman to abandon consideration of an independent run by making a similar pledge. Lieberman refused to make this pledge; his campaign manager, Sean Smith said, "Are we going to support Ned Lamont? Ah, no!"^[23] June 12 is the 163rd day of the year in the Gregorian calendar (164th in leap years), with 202 days remaining. ...

On July 3 in Hartford, Lieberman announced that he would collect signatures in order to guarantee himself a position on the November ballot. Both Lieberman and Smith said that Lieberman will run as a "petitioning Democrat" and will caucus with Senate Democrats if elected. ^[24] On July 10, the Lieberman campaign officially filed paperwork allowing him to collect signatures to form a new political party, the Connecticut for Lieberman party.^[25] July 3 is the 184th day of the year (185th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar, with 181 days remaining. ... July 10 is the 191st day (192nd in leap years) of the year in the Gregorian Calendar, with 174 days remaining. ...

Upon Lieberman's announcement, independent polls continued to show him favored to win a plurality or outright majority of the vote in a three-way general election (see below). The petition issue led to charges against the Lieberman campaign of political opportunism and lack of respect for the political process.^[26]

On August 29, Lieberman began airing an ad, named "Soothing", featuring images of a sunset over an ocean beach, while a female narrator says "you might enjoy a break from Ned Lamont's negative advertising. So just sit back and think about - good stuff." The Lamont campaign stood by their advertisements.^[27]

There was some debate over what impact Lieberman's campaign would have on several tight House races in Connecticut. Some argued that Lieberman would bring out Republican supporters, who would vote for Lieberman and then cross over to support the Republican House candidates. Others, such as Rahm Emanuel, argued that having two Democrats running against each other will increase the Democratic turnout, which will then benefit the Democratic House candidates.^{[citation needed]}

Democratic reaction to Lieberman's independent run

On August 9, Democratic Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid and DSCC Chair Chuck Schumer issued the following joint statement on the Connecticut Senate race: Harry Mason Reid (born December 2, 1939) is the senior United States Senator from Nevada and a member of the Democratic Party, for which he serves as Senate Minority Leader. ... DSCC can also refer to Defense Supply Center, Columbus. ... Charles Ellis Chuck Schumer (born November 23, 1950) is currently the senior U.S. Senator from the state of New York, serving since 1999. ...

According to The Hill, a Democratic aide to a high-ranking senator commented that Lieberman might be stripped of his Democratic privileges in the Senate. "At this point Lieberman cannot expect to just keep his seniority," said the aide. "He can’t run against a Democrat and expect to waltz back to the caucus with the same seniority as before. It would give the view that the Senate is a country club rather than representative of a political party and political movement."^[29] The Hill is a non-partisan, non-ideological weekly newspaper that describes the inner workings of U.S. Congress. ...

On August 21, 2006 a group of New Haven Democrats cited Connecticut General Statutes section 9-61 in a complaint filed with the New Haven Democratic Registrar of Voters, Sharon Ferrucci, demanding that she purge Lieberman from the Democratic voter rolls. The statute reads in part: "Knowingly becoming a candidate for office on ticket of a new party automatically separates voter from his former party."^[30] Lieberman's campaign manager called it a "dirty political trick". Ferrucci rejected the complaint.^[31]

Waterbury statement controversy

Lamont campaign manager Tom Swan criticized the strongly pro-Lieberman city of Waterbury for alleged corruption, describing it as a meeting place for "forces of evil" in a published interview.^[32] Waterbury's Democratic Mayor Michael Jarjura, had endorsed Lieberman after the primary. ^[33] Swan later apologized for the statement saying the comment was aimed at former Mayor Philip Giordano, who was arrested for sexual crimes with a minor, as "slime" and former Governor John Rowland, a Waterbury native, who was indicted for corruption, as "evil". Both Giordano and Rowland were forced to resign from their positions due to criminal activities.^[34] As Jarjura failed to accept Swan's "apology", Lamont himself was forced to apologize for the comments.^[35] On August 22 Lamont announced former Democratic state chairman George Jepsen would be the chairman of the general election campaign. He denied this was a demotion of Swan.^[36] Waterbury is the name of some places in the United States of America: Waterbury, Connecticut Waterbury, Vermont This is a disambiguation page — a navigational aid which lists other pages that might otherwise share the same title. ...

Lieberman, Lewinsky, and a Lamont e-mail released by the Lieberman campaign

In early September, Lamont attacked Lieberman's response to the 1998 scandal involving President Clinton's affair with intern Monica Lewinsky, claiming Lieberman had created a "media spectacle". Lieberman responded by releasing an e-mail Lamont sent the senator at the time, in which Lamont wrote he reluctantly supported Lieberman's stance critical of Clinton.^[40] Monica Lewinsky on her U.S. Government ID Monica Samille Lewinsky (born July 23, 1973 in San Francisco) is an American woman who had an affair with President Bill Clinton, while she was working at the White House in 1995-1996. ...

Lamont then called for Lieberman to "move on" from publicly criticizing Clinton:

Lieberman's speech in 1998 had occurred after the President had gone on prime time television to admit his relationship with Lewinsky. Lieberman believes his speech defused partisan tension over a "media spectacle" already present prior to the senator's speech.^[41]

"Turncoat" ads

In late September, Lamont's campaign aired a controversial television ad that depicted various actors portraying Connecticut voters referring to Lieberman as a "turncoat". One of these ads suggested that voters should wear their coats inside out to protest Lieberman's campaign as an independent candidate.^[42]

Lieberman responded with the "Blackboard" ad, where the words "Democrat" and "Republican" are separated by a line and Lieberman erased it, stressing his appeal was primarly to the state's largest voter bloc, unaffiliated voters. ^[43]

Opinion polls

Every general election poll showed Lieberman ahead, with polls close to the actual date indicating a wide margin. Lieberman indicated that he would caucus with the Democrats if he retained his seniority. ^[44]

Finances

Lieberman and Lamont fought a hotly contested and expensive primary battle for the Democratic nomination. Republican candidate Schlesinger gained his party's nomination through the Republican convention and has raised and spent relatively little. Minor candidates' fundraising has been almost nonexistent.

According to the Center for Responsive Politics,^[67] fundraising and cash on hand (as of dates specified) are as follows:

In the days before the Democratic Party primary, the Lieberman campaign invoked the "millionaire rule", believing that Lamont's personal campaign contributions had exceeded federal limits. Despite having more than double Lamont's funding, Lieberman accepted contributions up to a higher $6,300 limit per individual. The normal limit is $2,100. Since the primary Lamont has added over $2 million of his own money to his campaign effort.^[68]^[69] According to published reports, as of late October, Lamont has spent over $12.7 million of personal funds on his campaign, while Lieberman has raised over $14 million.^[70] 2006 (MMVI) was a common year starting on Sunday of the Gregorian calendar. ...
