The post November 2, 2010 House election results, a change that we needed.
Tom Foley said he will not concede the election until there is an official certified count. Already in Torrington a recount found 2,000 voted for him that were not counted earlier. He said in his news conference this morning, that Secretary of State Bysiewicz and other elected officials are doing a grave disservice to Connecticut voters.
And Bridgeport voter fraud is highly suspected. People outside the polls were handing out replica ballots and it was found that some of them were cast along with the real vote. Some honest voters in Bridgeport reported that they received more than one ballot 'stuck together' and complained to the poll workers. Plastic bags of ballots were left unattended and unsecured in the poll area instead of be deposited in the locked cage. Those bags were known to contain both the real ballots and the replica ballots.
Vernon Major Jason McCoy was asked by the State Republican committee to go to Bridgeport to watch the polls there after they got word of a few hundred ballots have been ordered with a return address of a vacant lot. He witnessed these irregularities along with Jim House of WFSB News who videoed them and ran a breaking news story on last night's newscast.
A Hartford voter reported that when his wife went to the polls, she was denied her right to vote because her name was already crossed of as if she voted! She eventually was able to vote, but not after putting up a fight. That same voter also stated he attended an AFL-CIO convention earlier this year and he reported that they were promoting the need to work Bridgeport this election to get the Democratic votes anyway they can. I wonder how many dead, out of people or illegals voted there?
And of course one will ask if they have yet counted the absentee votes?
Secretary of State Bysiewicz may have prematurely called Malloy winner of CT Governor race. AP just rescinded their call of the race winner as Malloy because they show Foley ahead by over 8,000 votes. and the absentee votes have not been counted!
The Fox News report quoting AP sources:
Democratic Secretary of the State Susan Bysiewicz said Wednesday that unofficial election results showed Malloy, the former mayor of Stamford, defeating Foley by 3,103 votes out of more than 1.1 million cast, above the threshold of 2,000 or fewer that would trigger an automatic recount. The total didn't include absentee ballots, which Bysiewicz believed wouldn't change the outcome. . .
. . . The Associated Press on Wednesday afternoon called the race for Malloy based on Bysiewicz's statements. However, the AP withdrew its call later Wednesday after its vote count showed Foley with a lead of 8,424 votes over Malloy, with all but 1.5 percent of the precincts counted. Bysiewicz had not released any vote results to support her statements earlier today.
