Former Bridgeport councilman sentenced to three weekends in jail in 2018 election fraud case https://t.co/dzmUDd6Hdu

Due to the fact that SEEC referred the complaint against Nieves to the Chief State’s Attorney, & due to the seriousness of the allegations themselves, at our September meeting the Unrig Bridgeport coalition voted to officially rescind our endorsement. https://t.co/g92PHmpwnn

Why was the drop off among voters so much greater in Bridgeport than in our neighboring towns?

Mr. Castillo has been embroiled in scandal for months. Why has he not resigned? And why has there been zero public pressure from high-ranking local officials calling for his resignation?

Sitting on a city council and demanding federal grant money go to an organization you are involved in is questionable ethical behavior.

Our reporting at the @CTMirror showed Nieves helped to sign up at least 71 people to vote absentee ahead of the Democratic primary last year in Bridgeport.

The SEEC said it confirmed the allegations in this complaint that Aidee Nieves, the chairwoman of the Bridgeport City Council, forged an absentee ballot application.

She's already been referred for potential criminal charges as part of another complaint https://t.co/H418AgR353

#BREAKING State Elections Enforcement Commission just voted to issue a subpoena to powerful #Bridgeport Democratic Party boss Mario Testa

SEEC wants Testa to appear in person and produce documents proving that lives in Bridgeport, and not Monroe -- as this complaint alleges:

[John Craven @johncraven1]

SEEC also referred complaints against #Bridgeport City Council president Aidee Nieves and former councilwoman Samia Sulliman to the Chief State's Attorney

[John Craven @johncraven1]

#BREAKING State Elections Enforcement Commission is referring Wanda Geter-Pataky to prosecutors for potential criminal charges related to alleged ballot fraud during last year's race for #Bridgeport mayor

Videos showed Geter stuffing absentee ballot boxes

[John Craven @johncraven1]

One of the specific complaints SEEC referred involves a voter who claims Geter-Pataky bribed her with a Section 8 housing voucher to vote for Mayor @joeganim

Geter-Pataky is already charged with ballot fraud in the 2019 election

@blm860 This complaint calls into question all of his donations

[Andrew Brown @Andy_Ed_Brown]

Interested to know if the Governor communicated this opinion in any way to CT Dem Chairwoman Nancy DiNardo and Bridgeport DTC Chair Mario Testa.

2019. Not 2023. Hard to keep track here

Bridgeport officials charged with election fraud tied to absentee ballots from Ganim's 2019 campaign https://t.co/9WQ42tCP7h via @ConnPost

[John Craven @johncraven1]

#BREAKING Wanda Geter-Pataky & 3 other #Bridgeport
campaign workers have been charged with illegally possessing another person's ballot & witness tampering in 2019 mayoral primary

Geter-Pataky in not charged in the 2023 ballot stuffing case

All four are back in court 6-24

[Andrew Brown @Andy_Ed_Brown]

If CT prosecutors are willing to charge people for not maintaining a list of people they distributed absentee ballot applications to, then a lot of people involved in the 2023 Bridgeport primary should be prepared to lawyer up.

After BPT’s 2019 primary, we uncovered violations with ABs which raised serious doubts re: integrity of the election results. So we organized a lawsuit, had a 5 1/2 wk trial, and sent evidence to SEEC. Today, BPT voters finally see a measure of justice! https://t.co/hqHwOt1gnR
