The event was chaired by John Morris of Litchfield, the longest-serving member of the Republican State Central Committee. GOP candidates George Logan, who is challenging U.S. Representative Jahana Hayes for the 5th District seat, and Barbara Breor, who is running against State Representative Maria Horn in the 64th District, were in attendance. 

Representatives were also sent from 30th District State Senator Steve Harding’s and U.S. Senate candidate Gerry Smith’s campaigns. Harding is running against Kent political newcomer Justin Potter, who received the Democratic Convention’s endorsement this week. Gerry Smith is facing incumbent U.S. Senator Chris Murphy.
