The trial of former Connecticut Governor John Rowland starts to wind down. The race for governor is ramping up and the underticket races continue to slip under the radar. The Wheelhouse continues to roll even without our host John Dankosky this week.

We check-in on the latest developments in the Rowland trial, recap a transportation forum with Dan Malloy and Tom Foley, and we will discuss some relatively quiet races for state office.

Colin McEnroe takes over Dankosky's chair for our weekly news roundtable.

GUESTS:

Keith Phaneuf - State budget reporter for the Connecticut Mirror
Daniela Altimari - Statehouse reporter for the Hartford Courant
James Bergenn - Attorney for Shipman & Goodwin LLP
