Ned needs 15% of Convention delegates or 2% of registered Dems in the state of CT to get on the primary ballot. The Lamont campaign is pursuing twin strategies of garnering Convention delegates and getting signatures on a petition. Petition gathering can't start til April 26 and it goes til end of May.
Convention delegate selection process starts at the end of this month, March 21-28. I'm hoping to get on my town's delegation, but there are pro-Lieberman supporters in my DTC who will try to thwart it. I hope we send enough delegates to help Ned get his 15%.
