Neil Vigdor from the New York Times discusses CPAC and also his photography around the Fairs of Connecticut

Neil Vigdor, NY Times, Stamford Mayoral race. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Last week, as the 2019 legislative session came to a slow, lumbering close, Gov. Ned Lamont signaled there's still some unfinished business floating around (or maybe overhead, in the form of toll gantries). Meanwhile: what last-minute bills got pushed through? What got swept under the rug, or kicked down the road? What other metaphors can we come up with? Today, we offer a look back, and also a look ahead (special sessions? vetoes?) with Courant political reporters Chris Keating and Neil Vigdor.

For a lot of candidates, losing a big election spells the end of a political career. But this is Connecticut, where voters regularly hand out second -- even third -- chances. Enter Republican Bob Stefanowski, who never fully exited the spotlight after losing to Ned Lamont: is he currently running a four-year campaign for governor? Courant politics reporter Neil Vigdor and Sacred Heart University professor Gary Rose, Ph.D. discuss Stefanowski's pre- and post-election personas.

As the battle over highway tolls presses on at the State Capitol, some Democrats are holding out until they know the details. Meanwhile, Connecticut's new transportation chief, Joseph Giulietti, already has his hands full, from trains to the CTfastrak to infrastructure to (you guessed it) tolls. Courant reporters Neil Vigdor and Steve Singer drop by to discuss the state's transportation situation. All aboard.

Can a Connecticut candidate for office use public campaign funds to pay for child care? In the run-up to the 2018 election, Caitlin Clarkson Pereira dared to ask that question. And earlier this month, the five-member, all-male State Elections Enforcement Commission answered: no. Pereira and Courant reporter Neil Vigdor join Capitol Watch to talk about child care costs, publicly funded campaign tchotchkes and Hillary Clinton retweets.

Last week, Hartford Courant reporter Neil Vigdor broke a story about a Connecticut woman named Amy Lappos, who accused Joe Biden of touching her inappropriately during a 2009 Greenwich fundraiser. The story, which came out after a similar allegation by Nevada legislator Lucy Flores, went viral. On a bonus Spring Break episode of Capitol Watch, Neil takes us step-by-step through his reporting process.

Neil Vigdor, a political reporter for the Hartford Courant, chats with Broesder and Kleinhans about what’s happening at the state legislature and his path to becoming a top-notch journalist.

"Let's get Connecticut growing again. ... History has its eye on all of us." Shortly after being sworn in as Connecticut's 89th governor, Ned Lamont spoke of optimism and shared responsibility. We'll walk you through Inauguration Day in Connecticut, as Capitol Watch hears from politics reporters Daniela Altimari, Neil Vigdor and Chris Keating, new state senator Will Haskell and others. (Oh, and yeah, a few howitzers.)

We don’t often get to hear the parting thoughts of a Connecticut governor. So when the opportunity arose to ask outgoing Governor Dannel P. Malloy about his two terms in office, Courant reporter Neil Vigdor and I grabbed a couple of microphones and headed over to the Capitol. Neil asked questions -- about popularity, regrets, the Sandy Hook tragedy, and much more -- while I tweaked the knobs, snapped a few pictures and admired the Revolutionary War imagery hanging on virtually every wall of his office. Here it is: our exit interview with Governor Dannel P. Malloy. Capitol Watch returns in 2019.

How are the political reporters in Connecticut covering the state's bloated race for governor? As of March 9, 2018, there are more than two dozen(!) candidates vying to replace Gov. Dannel Malloy in this year's gubernatorial election. There are no standouts yet. So who gets the news media's attention? Our podcast — hosted by The Roundup's Caio Goncalves, Gracie Enright and Ryley McGinnis — features interviews with Max Reiss of NBC Connecticut, Christine Stuart of CT News Junkie and Neil Vigdor of The Hartford Courant.
