Governor's

Several commentators have speculated that the good economic news of late is too late to save the Democrats from defeat in the midterm elections next month. While this may be the case in US House and Senate races, it may not be true of two very competitive New England Governor's races. Connecticut governor Dan Malloy and Massachusetts' Democratic gubernatorial nominee Martha Coakley are nursing very small leads in the latest polls and are ramping up their "get out the base" operations for the final stretch.
