Apparently the ugliness known as Hartford politics continues. The original allegations of tampering with Democratic Town Committee petitions was first detailed here, click here to read the original posting.
Democratic Registrar of Voters Olga Vazquez chose not to take the advice of the Secretary of the State and her legal staff. Attorney Ted Bromley from the Secretary of the State's office outlined the steps that needed to be taken in an e-mail from himself to Hartford City Clerk John Bazzano. That e-mail is below. In the e-mail, Bromley states that if the petitions were not completed and submitted in accordance with Connecticut law "the petition pages would have to be rejected"
DTC Petition SOTS E-mail
Since Vazquez wouldn't take the proper steps, the 5th District Democratic challenge slate, the "Kirkley-Bey" slate, is hoping that a superior court Judge will take the correct steps to rectify the situation. A hearing in Superior Court on Washington Street has been scheduled for Friday morning at 10:00am
