Given the unpopularity of the rather left leaning governor there, Dan(nel) Malloy, I suppose if Bernie Sanders somehow managed to become the Democratic nominee that the state could be much closer than normal. (Although I gather a lot of far left Democrats don't care all that much for Malloy either.)
I don't think his unpopularity (with Jindal leaving as governor, as of the last survey Malloy is now the second most unpopular governor in the country ahead of only Sam Brownback) would hurt Hillary Rodham Clinton all that much though.
Also, there doesn't seem to be much evidence that unpopular governors of one party have any real effect on Presidential candidates of the same party.
