Connecticut's top election official is calling for election reforms in the wake of a ballot stuffing scandal in Bridgeport's mayoral race, where some people were allegedly paid cash to fill out mail ballots.

Secretary of State Stephanie Thomas said her office had referred allegations about election "malfeasance" in the February redo of the mayoral race to the State Elections Enforcement Commission to investigate, including reports from voters who received absentee ballots despite not requesting them.

“When alerted, the Secretary of the State’s Office is required to send allegations of election malfeasance to SEEC for their review and decision to investigate if any laws were broken," Thomas, a Democrat, said in a statement. "Referrals are not proof of wrongdoing, but an important step to ensure that our elections are secure."

See the problem with cheating is you have to keep on cheating, you also can’t stop cheating being used in many elections where it increases its exposure.

Exposure and acceptance leads to a dissatisfied election, and a shame government of poor to little achievement.

Reforms aren’t going to fix the problem. Imprisoning the cheaters will at least send a message.
