Only five Congressional races were closer in 2022 than Connecticut's 5th Congressional District.
Republican candidate George Logan avoided mentioning former President Donald Trump's name during a contentious debate in Connecticut's 5th Congressional District on Wednesday night.His opponent, Democratic U.S. Representative Jahana Hayes, brought up Trump multiple times, while Logan sidestepped questions about him.Logan, a former state senator, has positioned himself as a moderate in his 2024 rematch against Hayes, whom he narrowly lost to in 2022 by just 2,000 votes.
The debate highlighted the challenges Logan faces as he attempts to navigate a district that leans blue but has consistently tight races.If successful, Logan would become the first Republican to win a congressional seat in Connecticut since Chris Shays lost his 4th District seat in 2008.The race has garnered attention as one of the most competitive House contests in the state, with both national parties pouring resources into the district.
