From Courant.com:
Republican Ross Garber, a well-known attorney, is now running for attorney general.
Garber, who defended the office of Gov. John G. Rowland during the impeachment inquiry in 2004, had stayed out of the race this year because his sister-in-law, Democrat Susan Bysiewicz, was in the race.
Garber, who ran previously for state treasurer in 2002 against Democrat Denise Nappier, took a shot at the incumbent, Richard Blumenthal.
“Connecticut needs an attorney general who will vigorously and diligently represent the state and its citizens, and who will do so without grandstanding or self-promotion. I hope to be that attorney general,” Garber said in a statement. “As a lawyer who has spent his career representing individuals and businesses in their most important cases, I will be ready to do the job on day one.”
