2040 United States presidential election in Connecticut



The 2040 United States presidential election in Connecticut was held on Tuesday, November 6, 2040, as part of the 2040 United States presidential election. The Democratic ticket of former Secretary of State Stacey Abrams and U.S. Senator from New York Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez won the state with 62.68% of the vote and a 28.16% margin of victory.

Campaign
Connecticut, a historically Democratic state, was shown by polling to be slightly competitive at the start of the 2040 campaign; FiveThirtyEight's polling average in the state in October 2039 showed an average Democratic lead of about 8-10%. However, as in the rest of the United States, the eruption of the Gary Braun pharmaceutical bribes scandal caused Braun's approval rating to plummet in what was already a historic Democratic stronghold.
