From Courant.com:
Avon attorney Martha Dean emerged as the winner of a four-way fight for the Republican nomination for attorney general at the party’s nominating convention Saturday.
But Ross Garber, who entered the race on Thursday after his sister-in-law, Susan Bysiewicz, was declared ineligible to run by the state Supreme Court, vowed to force a primary. He received 39 percent of the vote.
After the tally, Dean, 51, a lawyer from Avon, gave what might be one of the shortest acceptance speeches in convention history: “Thank you God. Thank you Republicans. Thank you very much. That is my short speech. Thank you.”
