The Hartford Courant, a newspaper based in Connecticut, published a lengthy profile of the four Connecticut Green Party candidates who are running in 2010.
The Connecticut Green Party is running four candidates for statewide seats and seats in the General Assembly. They include a youth counselor, a retired guidance counselor and a dual contender for state comptroller and the state Senate’s 33rd District
“I think the overarching theme is they’re average citizens,” said Tim McKee, party spokesman and member of its national committee. “I think they’re going to try to talk about important issues: the economy, certainly social justice issues and clean government.”
One of the candidates, Ben Wojan, is a Green Party candidate for state representative. He’s also a former Republican, former Democrat, and former member of the A Connecticut Party–the third party founded by former Governor Lowell P. Weicker Jr.

Thanks to Trent Hill for catching and calling attention to another first rate Green Party story.
Enjoyed the read.
