The CT GOP Twitter account posted a statement just before 9 a.m. that said, “Second Congressional District Candidate Tom Gilmer was arrested late last night. With the severity of the accusations Mr. Gilmer has ended his campaign.”

looks like Gilmer, the dropped out candidate, will win. CT CD2

his hometown hasnt reported yet, and ANderson already has his hometown counted. The mail in votes .... before the drop out and arrest.

CD1
Griffin ... same. his hometown he lost it. Fay’s hometown hasnt reported. she will sweep it. Griffin is toast.

Gilmer will vacate and a replacement named.
