Connecticut’s Lamont Concerned Mamdani May Dull NY Finance Edge

DC Funding Fights 'Pulls the Rug Out' From Under States, Says Gov. Lamont

Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont said he’s a “little bit” worried about the potential impact on his state should fellow Democrat Zohran Mamdani win the mayor’s race in New York City and follow through on his agenda.

Lamont acknowledged concerns from the finance industry about Mamdani in an interview with Bloomberg Television at the Greenwich Economic Forum. Connecticut serves as a hub to the hedge fund industry and is home to many commuters.
