Connecticut Ranks In Top 10 States To Live, Work In

Connecticut recently captured the 10th-place ranking in CNBC’s annual list of the best states in America to live and work in.

The state’s health care, low crime and worker protections were cited as its biggest strengths, while air quality and voting rights were mentioned as points of potential improvement – and Connecticut Democrats are working to expand early voting and absentee ballot access.

All 10 of the states placing in the top 10 have Democratic leadership, with Vermont, Maine, New Jersey, Minnesota, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Colorado and Massachusetts making up the other positions.
