Judge orders new Bridgeport mayoral primary after surveillance videos show possible ballot stuffing
NBC ^ | 11/1/23 | Susan Haigh

A state judge has taken the unusual step of ordering a new Democratic mayoral primary in Connecticut’s largest city to be held after the Nov. 7 general election is completed. The decision comes after surveillance videos showed a woman stuffing what appeared to be absentee ballots into an outdoor ballot box days before the original primary.

Superior Court Judge William Clark determined the allegations of possible malfeasance warrant throwing out the results of the Sept. 12 primary, which incumbent Bridgeport Mayor Joe Ganim won by 251 votes out of 8,173 cast. Absentee ballots secured his margin of victory.

“The volume of ballots so mishandled is such that it calls the result of the primary election into serious doubt and leaves the court unable to determine the legitimate result of the primary,” Clark wrote in his ruling, adding that the videos “are shocking to the court and should be shocking to all the parties.”

The new primary date has not been set yet.

Someone in NBC is in trouble for greenlighting this story. Goes against the metanarrative.

It wasn’t possible fraud, it was actual fraud caught on video, and the city clerk is the obvious culprit.

The Judge who is shocked has been living in a bubble for 3 years. One should at least know the accusations.

I don’t know Bridgeport politics... which way did the ‘compromised ballots’ go??

Did they favor Democrats or Republicans?

If there’s no election fraud, why are people being arrested for talking about it...? 🤔

CCTV footage showing Wanda Geter-Pataky, vice chair of the Bridgeport Democrat Town Committee and operations specialist for the city, and Eneida Martinez, a former City Council member... Both participated in ballot fraud, ballot harvesting and ballot stuffing at drop boxes.

They obviously are an election denier and should be jailed and ostracized from society.
Obviously.
