Peter Lumaj

Peter was born and raised in communist Albania. Lack of freedom and opportunity in his homeland encouraged Peter and his three brothers to escape oppression and settle in the United States. They left behind their parents and their seven other siblings, who suffered severe persecution at the hands of the communist government. Once in the United States, Peter learned English and enrolled in the City University of New York. While attending college, Peter worked as a porter and a doorman to support his family and to pay for his education. Peter went on to graduate Cum Laude with a B.A. in Political Science. Later, Peter enrolled in the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law. While attending law school, he worked as a fraud investigator in the Giuliani Administration. 

In 2014, Peter was selected as the Republican nominee for Connecticut Secretary of the State. In the 2014 general election, he is credited with running one of the closest races for statewide office in recent history in Connecticut.

In 2018, he sought the Republican nomination for governor in the State of Connecticut; he fell short three delegates at the Republican Convention, narrowly missing the threshold to automatically qualify for a spot on the primary ballot. Rather than pursue a petition process for ballot access, Lumaj withdrew from the race and returned to the private sector.

Currently, Peter is a small businessman, a practicing attorney and the owner of the Law Offices of Lumaj. In addition, Lumaj makes major media appearances as a Republican Political Strategist on stations such as FOX News, SKY News, Fox 61, i24News, etc. He remains involved in national, state and local politics, and is widely recognizable as a major force within the conservative movement within the Connecticut Republican Party.
