Jayme Stevenson (Republican, Independent)

The House is closest to the people. As your representative, I want to meet with you and be your voice in Washington. I have visited all of the 17 towns of our district and will continue to do so.

Jayme Stevenson (Republican, Independent)

I believe we want politicians with varied experiences. I served as a First Selectman so I understand government. But I was also a bond analyst, so I understand the private sector. I have sat on non-profit boards and understand the valuable role they also play.

Jayme Stevenson (Republican, Independent)

I would want to sit on the House Committee on Energy and Commerce (subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations) so I can help address the mental health challenges we face as a country and the Financial Services Committee to support the individuals and business interests in my district.

Jayme Stevenson (Republican, Independent)

I believe it allows people to make a change quickly when things are moving in the wrong direction. I believe we are at a moment that requires this sort of change. I also believe it gives the voters a chance to remove me in two years if they are not happy with the services I provide.

Jayme Stevenson (Republican, Independent)

I signed the term limit pledge and retired myself after 10 years as Darien's First Selectman. I believe it is crucial for us to get fresh ideas in politics. I believe one of the challenges we face is that our incumbent has been in office for too long.

Jayme Stevenson (Republican, Independent)

Clara Boothe Luce (1943-1947)was the last and only woman to hold this seat. She was also Republican who stood up to her party when she thought they were wrong. She was a supporter of Democratic President Roosevelt's efforts in World War II because she believed we needed to show national unity. She did not shy away from ensuring there was proper oversight, of course. As your representative, I will be an effective check on this administration, while reaching across the aisle to do what is right for our constituents.

Jayme Stevenson (Republican, Independent)

I believe compromise and finding common ground are fundamental to good policymaking and have practiced this during my entire political career. As Darien's First Selectman, I worked across the aisle to find solutions to the issues facing our town, our region and our state. I am proud to be endorsed by Connecticut's Independent Party and several of my former Democratic colleagues.

Jayme Stevenson (Republican, Independent)

We need to reinstate a deduction for local taxes. I will use Congressional power to ensure we make this fix as quickly as possible for the benefit of my constituents.

General election race ratings

See also: Race rating definitions and methods

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from three outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, and Sabato's Crystal Ball. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:

  • Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
  • Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
  • Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.[4]
  • Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.

Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.[5][6][7]

Post-filing deadline analysis

The following analysis covers all U.S. House districts up for election in Connecticut in 2022. Information below was calculated on July 21, 2022, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.

Eleven candidates filed to run for Connecticut's five U.S. House districts, including five Democrats and six Republicans. That's 2.2 candidates per district, down from 2.6 in 2020 and 2018.

This was the first election to take place under new district lines following the 2020 census. Connecticut was apportioned five districts, the same number it was apportioned after the 2010 census. The 11 candidates who filed to run this year were the fewest since 2014, when 10 candidates ran, and down from 13 in 2020 and 2018.

All incumbents filed to run for re-election, meaning there were no open seats this year. The 5th district was the only Connecticut U.S. House seat to have opened up this past decade. It was open in 2012 after incumbent Rep. Chris Murphy (D) decided to run for the U.S. Senate, and again in 2018, when incumbent Rep. Elizabeth Esty (D) didn’t file for re-election.

The Republican primary in the 4th district was the only contested primary this year. That was down from two in 2020 and 2018. No incumbents faced primary challengers. Republican and Democratic candidates filed to run in all five districts, so no seats were guaranteed to either party this year.

Presidential elections

Partisan Voter Index

See also: The Cook Political Report's Partisan Voter Index
