There should be a full analysis of the SDR’s especially in college Towns to make sure they did not vote in two places. Special focus should be on Stamford, Willimantic and New Haven.
Connecticut does not require documentary proof of citizenship to register—applicants attest under penalty of perjury, and same-day registration is available.
We have unofficial reports of 56k SDRs. Just under 7 k occurred during the 14 days of Early voting leaving about 49k people who SDR and voted on Election Day.
@laser158689 Yes. That was very unfortunate. Why the fiscal conservatives forced that primary is beyond me. Very stupid. But to be clear the Dems are controlling the BET spending now.
This is what happens with Dems in charge of the BET. Toni Jones knows she can get everything she wants out of Dems. If Republicans try to impose reasonableness, they’ll be demonized. This is what Greenwich voted for. They are getting it. Well done Greenwich voters.
@JakeSherman@PunchbowlNews Jake what you are saying is the Trump Administration enforcing the law is hugely controversial. Why would that be? Isn’t what Garcia is threatening aggressive and hugely controversial? You’re not biased are you?
…….and that’s not all!! Dick also wants to impose mandatory retirement for Supreme Court justices at 75. Yet he wants to serve until God knows how old he is. I have seen Dick‘s decline over the last decade or more. It is truly time for Dick to go.
I'll say it again for the people in the back...
In Nov 2028, Senator Richard Blumenthal will turn 82.
In Nov 2028, Rep. Rosa DeLauro will turn 85 (and doesn't support abolishing ICE).
In 2026, people in the 1st CD overwhelmingly felt it was time for a change.
In 2028, voters in the 3rd CD and across the state should call for a generational change as well, and it should start by making it crystal clear to Senator Blumenthal that he's on the wrong side of true progress.

"Questions swirled on Monday about whether U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal would support Chuck Schumer for Senate majority leader next year after the Connecticut Democrat said earlier in the day that his party needs “new energy and ideas.”
But when he arrived back in Washington for Senate votes on Monday evening, Blumenthal confirmed he still plans to support Schumer — as he said a week earlier in Hartford.
Blumenthal’s comments on Monday morning seemed to suggest he was open to new leadership when Democrats regain the majority in the Senate next year following major victories in the midterm elections. A week earlier, in a post-election press conference, Blumenthal said he’d be supporting Schumer for the top leadership role.
But Blumenthal, who’s gearing up to run for a fourth term in 2028, clarified what he meant after a day of confusion about where he stood on Schumer and the need for his party to consider new energy through the lens of Democratic leadership.
“I plan to support Chuck Schumer as Senate majority leader, just as I said last week,” Blumenthal told reporters on Monday night when asked to clarify his earlier remarks. “I’m also incredibly excited about the new ideas and energy that new members are going to be bringing to the Senate. We need them.”

Any of those residents who voted for Democrats deserve the rate hike and more. Elections have consequences. They voted for the rate hike. Now they complain. Pleeze
Connecticut residents raised concerns Monday as regulators considered a proposed Eversource rate hike that could increase electric delivery charges by 11% to 18%. https://t.co/Hod38xN9s8
California’s energy policies have gutted its refining industry.
In the early ’80s, CA had over 40 refineries. Today, just five produce gasoline and diesel under its extreme mandates.
That’s the real cost of the “green” agenda: less energy, higher prices, less reliability.
Spitballing a hypothetical.
Republicans - would you be open to an immigration deal that would legalize Dreamers & give protections to longtime illegal immigrants w/ no criminal record if they came forward & paid a fee/back taxes in exchange national voter ID requirements, a nationwide federal ban on sanctuary cities (ICE detainers must be honored at jails for criminal aliens) and a strict overhaul on the asylum system to prevent fraudulent claims overwhelming the system?
Would Dems have any appetite for such a deal?
To see leftist podcasters, comedians, and commentators laugh about political assassination as though it’s entertainment and the destruction of a human life is a punchline, is beyond disgusting.
My husband, Charlie Kirk, was killed in an act of political violence, something our two children and I will live with every day for the rest of our lives.
A culture that laughs at assassination is one of profound moral decay. It threatens the very foundation of our country and the principles that hold our democracy together.
You do not have to agree with someone’s politics to recognize the value of their life. This should not be so hard.
Political violence must never be something this country tolerates, excuses, or celebrates.
How many fees and taxes do taxpayers face in CT?
Our new Sources of Revenue flyer follows 370 entries in the state’s books — from taxes and fees to federal grants and more.
@CTCentinal@CTGOP@benproto59 What a motley crew of wannabes—all will fail. Key question, how does CTGOP raise $2-3 million so they can engage. Now practically all money donated goes to salaries & rent—-not to promote candidates, GOP ideals or going after Dems. Put any chair in, without money they fail.
Yet another CT liberal only pushing more taxes. Never a word about spending restraint. But guess that is what CT voters want spending more and more on me. Just don’t tax me.
Come on Connecticut Republicans. Come vote at the polls by 8pm. Otherwise you’ll get higher electric bills, a statewide property tax, no local zoning & higher income, dividend & interest taxes. Say no to that stuff. Save CT. Vote for Ryan Fazio, Joe Kelly and the GOP team.

Thank you, Ryan!! You put yourself out there, you worked tirelessly, you explained how you’d make CT affordable for all & you won 2 debates by confronting King Ned for his 8 years of failure. I will proudly cast my vote for you tomorrow. I trust you to save Connecticut. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

🇺🇸 We love Connecticut.
But families across our state are struggling. Ned Lamont had eight years to fix it. Instead, he raised our taxes and electric bills higher than ever before. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
Join us. We can bring people together—across parties and backgrounds. As governor, I’ll cut taxes by over $2,500 per family, cap property taxes, reduce electric bills, and bring jobs and opportunity back to our state.
Thank you to all who have supported me, volunteered, and also those who kept an open mind and listened—especially if they do not always agree with me.
Tomorrow, on Election Day, I humbly ask for your vote to lead our state. Connecticut can thrive like never before if we deliver positive change.
Thank you and God bless our state.
This is @ryanfazio’s best ad yet. After you see this ad how can you possibly not vote for Ryan on Tuesday. King Ned has had eight years and has failed. Vote for Ryan Fazio. Save Connecticut.
