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 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!

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.

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.
