Independent candidate for governor Oz Griebel and his running mate Monte Frank stopped by to talk with Paul Choiniere and me about their campaign.

The flu has claimed 63 lives in Connecticut since August. Health and environment reporter Martha Shanahan gives us the latest on the flu season and the availability of the vaccine.

After petitions put the fate of North Stonington's multimillion-dollar school building project in doubt, the town cast their votes on Thursday to decide the future of its school district. Charlie Clark gave us the latest update.
