Lembo Announcement Airbrushes Malloy Years, 2010 Bid for Lieutenant Governor.
You would not know from Kevin Lembo’s video announcement that he ran for statewide office twice on the Malloy-Wyman ticket. Something indeed has “gotta” change, and correcting the errors of the past six years is the first step. Voters may not see silence during those years as a virtue to be rewarded.
Curiously, Lembo states he’d never run for office before becoming comptroller. That omits his exploratory bid for lieutenant governor in 2010–he switched races with friend and ally Nancy Wyman when she became Malloy’s running mate and Lembo ran to succeed her as comptroller. It was a Democratic convention to remember.
