STAMFORD, Conn. The right for World Wrestling Entertainment fans to vote was threatened Friday by Connecticut Secretary of State Susan Bysiewicz, who gave the authority to local poll workers to determine that if anyone shows up to the polls on November 2 wearing any WWE merchandise, whether it is a John Cena T-shirt or a Randy Orton wristband, they may be forced to go home and change, cover it up, or take it off in order to vote.
Denying our fans the right to vote, denying them their First Amendment rights, regardless if they are Democrat, Republican or Independent, is un-American, unconstitutional and blatantly discriminatory, said Vince McMahon, Chairman and CEO of WWE.

Lol, well you’re still here to tell about it!!
Dogs have an instinct for knowing ‘who likes them’. Cats don’t care!
I never watched WWE. My brother likes it. He says the storylines have been toned down since McMahon started running, so he wants her to lose. ;d
SOS Bysiewicz is not running for reelection.
The Republican candidate for the open seat is Jerry Farrell.
No idea on his chances or any of the downballot statewide Republicans. AG and Comptroller are also open seats.
Farrell is the underdog, but could do it.
Martha Dean is more likely.
The others: No.
So Jack Orchulli doesn’t have a chance for Comptroller?
no chance. but the DEM Kevin Lembo has a husband.
Super. Will he be the first open homosexual to win a statewide office? How wonderful. We’ve come so far since Jim McQueervey. ;d
openly married anyway. maybe first in history. “We made history!”
