AINews Summary

Lamont is heading into 2026 with a budget fight over tax rebates and school aid, while seeking a third term. Republicans are trying to use corruption allegations against Democrats, and Erin Stewart has already started advertising in the GOP primary. The budget fight could create some headwinds for Lamont if it weakens his fiscal message, but he remains the incumbent. Stewart's early ad push gives Republicans some visibility, though the race still looks Democratic-leaning from the available news.
