Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Mary L. Sanders (G)

As mother to 4 wonderful children and grandmother to 8 much loved teenagers and young adults, I want to address climate change and save our melting planet. They deserve a livable world, with clean air, clean water and green spaces to enjoy. The corporate greed that major parties have allowed to run rampant is killing us and the planet - the major parties fill their coffers with fossil fuel money, took our original Green New Deal, watered it down til it drowned, and continue investing in war and domination. The Green Party takes no corporate money and is only beholden to our constituents and our 4 Pillars - Peace, Ecology, Social Justice & Democracy. Our form of democracy is decentralized, encourages participation at our monthly meetings.

I am a peace activist and if elected will be advocating for nuclear disarmament, working towards improving relations with other countries, including those seen as our adversaries, ending cruel sanctions and blockades on Cuba and around the world. The military budget has been out of control for a long time with impractical spending on weapons development, the establishment of bases in too many countries and for many of the wrong reasons. There is often little oversight and leading to mismanagement, waste and outright fraud. The Sanctions we impose on other countries harm the most vulnerable, starving children and denying them access to much needed medical supplies. This is cruel and must end!

Voting out of fear, for the lesser of two evils, has put us in the perilous situation we are in today. Envision something better and vote Green. When minor parties do well, the major parties start listening to their constituents a little better. Who knows, maybe they will give us Ranked Choice Voting and we'll have a little more of a democracy.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Mary L. Sanders (G)

Environmental and Foreign Policy would take front row as without these nothing else will matter. We are on the brink of nuclear war and the climate emergency is at the tipping point. Other passions include criminal justice reform, improving safety nets including food insecurity, housing and energy needs, universal healthcare/Medicare for All, codifying Roe, free community and state college, strengthening civil rights protections and voter rights, and overhauling many of the federal departments that have been lax in oversight of our health and well being, including the FDA and FCC who are operating on guidelines decades old.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Mary L. Sanders (G)

The most important characteristic of an elected official is honesty and transparency, and their principals should put people before profit. We must be diplomatic and able to negotiate and balance the needs of a diverse constituency, legislating in a nonpartisan manner. We must educate ourselves about the issues at hand and be able to see all sides of an argument. We must consider the needs of all stakeholders, ultimately working towards solutions acceptable to all. It is also important to remain accessible and accountable to the communities one represents and to be present when needed. While I consider myself a determined problem solver, a successful officeholder must engage the constituents and communities in developing solutions. Client centered communication skills were crucial whether working with individuals in crisis, developing programming and grant applications or negotiating funding contracts. Another quality I value is reducing waste, repurposing and recycling in my personal life, which would help me to identifying waste, fraud, and duplication and to streamline both procedures and budgets. As a social progressive but fiscal moderate, I think we can do more with less and still put people and planet before profit.

What was your very first job? How long did you have it?

Mary L. Sanders (G)

After a couple years of Summer Youth Employment I worked a short time in a factory cafeteria. My first real job was at the Spanish Speaking Center of New Britain. Hired as a part-time receptionist, I later moved into the Executive Secretary position and a year later was moved into the Adult Education department. There I tutored ESL and GED classes and provided Case Management helping students develop self-sufficiency plans and move into employment. I was only there 3 1/2 years but returned after 15 years at other non-profits and schools and became the Executive Director for 17 years. We provided the community with access to a Food Pantry, ESL, GED and Computer classes, a business startup program, social services and youth programs.

What was the last song that got stuck in your head?

Mary L. Sanders (G)

Holy Water by We The Kingdom

Do you believe that it's beneficial for representatives to have previous experience in government or politics?

Mary L. Sanders (G)

I believe good legislators can get better with time as their experience helps them maneuver the system and hopefully, has shown them how to best serve the needs of their constituents. The opposite can also hold true. Career politicians often lose touch with their constituents, take their votes for granted, and may be out of touch with their current reality. More set in their ways and philosophies, they begin to legislate with a “this is how it’s always been done” mentality, with little thinking outside the box. They are also beholding to their big donors and may put the needs of low-income and average working people on the back burner. Newly elected legislators coming from different professions, can often provide fresh and innovative solutions with their wider perspective and practical experiences. So yes, it could be beneficial, but not particularly necessary.

If you are not a current representative, are there certain committees that you would want to be a part of?

Mary L. Sanders (G)

I am interested in numerous committees. I previously expressed my interest in Foreign Affairs being a Peace Activist. I would also be able to contribute to the areas of Health and Human Services and Labor because of my 35 years in social service and workforce development related nonprofits. I have been active around criminal justice and corrections issues for many years and would like to serve on the Judiciary Committee. As a candidate on the Green Party line, addressing the climate crisis and environmental justice are a priority for me, so I would ask to be part of any committees related to the environment, and public health and safety.

General election race ratings

See also: Race rating definitions and methods

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. 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.
• 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.

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.
