Sens. Sampson & Harding Statement on Bridgeport Election Crimes

Sen. Rob Sampson and Sen. Stephen Harding issued the following statement regarding a Bridgeport City Council member and a vice chair of the city’s Democratic Town Committee who are expected to surrender to state police today on warrants charging them with crimes related to the 2023 election.

“When will one-party rule Connecticut Democrats at the State Capitol admit and acknowledge what the rest of the state sees?

We need election integrity reform.

Republicans have been shouting from the rooftops about it even prior to the viral Bridgeport ballot stuffing videos which made Connecticut a national embarrassment.

Connecticut Democrats have shown zero interest in ensuring election integrity and have repeatedly voted ‘no’ on Republicans’ repeated efforts to fix this obviously broken system.”
