Title was the report. Polling places in Hartford and Bridgeport have reported that they ran out of ballots. How does a polling place run out of ballots? Is there not a list with the number of registered voters in the district and wouldn't they have that number on hand?
The Secretary of State has instructed them to print more ballots.
Just seems odd and worthy of attention. Or am I being too cynical?
Some places will have more votes than voters.
The fact that it’s Bridgeport and Hartford raises a big red flag. Not that Blumey needs the fraud, the average brain dead resident of the People’s Republic of Connecticut will vote for Hitler if he has a (D) after his name. McMahon’s no prize but as Beck was saying today ,”that guy [Blumenthal] is pure evil!”
I’d check any dumpsters behind the polling locations to see if any ballots had been thrown out...
oops should be
If the voters dont show up, they cant be running out of ballots.
Blumenthal fraud territory. Connecticut is a liberal shithole overrun with illegals, gangs, and Democrats. You can get a rash just driving thru there.
Once was a great state. Today it is a cesspool.
The chairman of the Connecticut Republicans has filed a complaint with state election officials, saying it was illegal for voters in Bridgeport to use photocopied ballots,,,
Healy says he learned that voting officials at certain Bridgeport polling places made photocopies of a ballot, which he said violates Connecticut’s strict procedures for printing, packaging, opening, stamping, storage, delivery and security of election ballots.

They better hope the Democrat wins the attorney general race.
Otherwise some Hartford and Bridgeport folks are going to the slammer.
Linda’s campaign needs to have a team of lawyers there now!

Incredible. They found a guy from the Himes Campaign sitting at a desk in the Registrar’s Office, with a laptop and eating donuts.

Chicago politics have come to CT
BRIDGEPORT (AP) - The mayor of Bridgeport has asked Connecticut election officials to keep the polls in his city open until 10 p.m., two hours past closing because of a ballot shortage.
Nancy Nicolescu, spokeswoman for the State Elections Enforcement Commission said Tuesday the secretary of the state does not have the authority to keep the polls open late without a court order.
This so bogus.
