Dan Malloy, the endorsed Democratic candidate for Connecticut governor, is criticizing his primary opponent Ned Lamont for skipping a planned televised debate inNew London later this month. The Day of New London, which traditionally co-sponsors the debate with WTNH-TV, announced Tuesday that Lamont is refusing to participate, forcing them to cancel the live event.
The Republican candidates for governor will still face off on July 28. Malloy and Lamont appeared together last month in their first TV debate.
Malloy says he thinks Lamont won't participate in a second debate because a campaign focus group showed he did not perform well.
A spokeswoman confirmed Lamont is not participating, saying that he wants to talk directly to voters between now and the Aug. 10 primary. She says there was no focus group.
