BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut judge has set Jan. 23 as the date for a new Democratic primary election in the Bridgeport mayor’s race after having tossed out the September election results because of alleged ballot box stuffing.

    Holy shit! Wth are those people thinking electing this criminal to office???

    At least he hasn’t gotten his law license back after multiple attempts.

    In 2021, Ganim again sought reinstatement of his license to practice law. The Grievance Committee voted, 3–2, to recommend denial of Ganim’s request, and in 2023 the Connecticut Superior Court agreed, finding that there was “insufficient” evidence that Ganim was morally fit to practice law.

      If they’re concerned with ballot box stuffing in the primary I do question if the same thing happened to enable his reelection. It’s plausible, at a minimum.

        That may have been why people went through the film of ballot boxes, to get proof of what they suspected.
