Some of the crazy Democrats in Connecticut are being primaried by crazier Democrats...I know John Larson of Connecticut First Congressional District (Hartford area) has a few crazies running against him.

Vote Ryan Fazio for Governor (Republican), Connecticut FReepers!!

There are a number of Afrikan colonies listed here.

There will probably be a low turnout in Alabama. Only 3 districts voting. In my district only 1 race to vote in. Most won’t think it worth it, but I hope I’m wrong. I’m going to vote about 9am.

Not voting for Graham’s sister. I will vote for Fry over Norman.

Connecticut is a closed primary. So pretty much the vote today is for status quo Democrats, or even crazier communist Democrats.

My district has no Republican Primary today, but some do.

Fazio in November!

What district are you in? My uncle lives in Windsor on the Farmington River, My cousins lives in Ellington and East Granby...

Larson has run an impressive campaign—kept his health issues well hidden.

The story was well covered when it happened but buried deep since.

It helps when the mass media is in your pocket.

Larson will win renomination and re-election—and then probably croak on the House floor at some point.

Welcome to CT politics.

Congressional District 1 (Larson’s) State House District 81, State Senate District 16

Right on the Hartford/New Haven County line.

The DOJ is monitoring polling sites in Minnesota’s Hennepin and Ramsey counties during the state’s primary election.

The DOJ is deploying roughly 20 staff from the Civil Rights Division’s Voting Section and the Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s Office—to ensure transparency, ballot security, and compliance with federal law.

Dad, who grew up in East Hartford, said that the Larson name there is like the Kennedy is in Massachusetts. John Larson is a liar. Dad said the First Congressional District hadn't had a Republican since 1954. I'd love to see the fifth and second flip Red.

Dad knew the Grasso family (his principal was Thomas Grasso, and Ella was a fiscal conservative according to dad). Dad said he voted for a few Democrats in Connecticut, Ella, Joe Lieberman over The Wackjob (Lowell P Weicker) and he state representative (a fiscal conservative and anti abortion Democrat.)

Another stupid state that will have runoff if nobody gets 50%

As predicted, very low turnout at my voting place. I usually vote around 9 am and there would be 300-400 votes on the machines. I got delayed voting today. Voted at 1 pm and only 178 votes on the machines. I voted for Gary Palmer.
