Death Penalty rears it's head in CT Governor's race

Yes it's a matter of life and death.....but we're still talking about just one person. (Or at least very few people, it's not like Connecticut is known for executing a lot of people.......

Connecticut has only executed one person since the 70s.

I don't think many do. See Virginia Governor 2005.

Malloy and Foley's positions on the issue are really the only ones that matter, though. Why should it matter what Blumenthal or McMahon think? They can't do anything about it in DC.

There is a federal death penalty, which a Senator could vote to abolish if he or she were so inclined.

Federal death penalty abolition is not moving forward any time soon.

Plus it makes up well under 1% of executions.
