Tuesday was Election Day in Connecticut!
 
From Bridgeport to Hartford, some of the state's big, and small, municipalities elected their next mayor.
 
This hour, we tell you who won, who lost, and why it matters. Plus, a great panel of guests will dig into some of the races and tell us what they might mean for the state at-large.
