Wanda Geter-Pataky and City Council candidate Eneida Martinez on Friday deferred numerous questions during the trial to overturn the September 12 Democratic primary for mayor to their attorney John Gulash who asserted the privilege against self-incrimination.
Bill Bloss, representing the campaign of John Gomes who lost the Democratic primary for mayor by 251 votes to Mayor Joe Ganim, introduced numerous surveillance videos asking them if they could identify the individuals placing what appear to be absentee ballots into designated drop boxes in advance of the September 12 Democratic primary.
Each time, Gulash, on behalf of his clients, asserted the privilege against self-incrimination.
In this civil procedure, a larger picture emerges: potential criminal investigations that could implicate political operatives from both the Ganim and Gomes campaigns.
Video surveillance captures supporters of both the Ganim and Gomes campaigns doing the same.
Court resumes Tuesday with Mayor Joe Ganim possibly called as a witness.
Bridgeport having a Political Meltdown, while the Feds and State sit on their Flucking hands!
This is what M T and the DTC has done to this City.!
Yes but MT made a good pizza.
When’s Mikey’s trial?!
😂 😆 😝 🤣

Deliberate election fraud, on a massive scale, was the false claim made by the Trump insurrectionists regarding the 2020 election. It was that suspicion of election fraud, by the easily led, emotionally labile Trump supporters that stormed the Capitol and killed Capital police officers, that nearly upended our elected government and nearly upended our very form of government… Political insurrection, instigated by political manipulators/agitators seeking to install an autocratic despot as US dictator, was accomplished by way of playing on the hopes and fears of impressionable, anti-democratic racists/bigots with respect to the illegitimacy of a democratic election, stolen by way of “ballot stuffing,” per the false claim that was refuted by many exhaustive audits of contested voting districts/precincts, nationwide.
The political shenanigans seen — on thousands of hours of official BPD video recordings — by the whole nation, and beyond, depicting the stealing of an election by “ballot stuffing,” plays directly into the political narrative/rationale for violent insurrection/civil war of the racist, far-right factions of our society/electorate, putting the whole nation at political and even physical risk in the next presidential/congressional election cycle. The dangerous, racist, far-right, will say “Look what happened in Bridgeport!”
And we can be sure that they will be citing the demographic statistics of our city when they deride us, the Democratic Party, and democracy in general as they shake their heads and spit verbal bile as they mourn the Trump loss and Democratic sweep in 2024… It won’t matter that the eyes of the nation and the world force a squeaky-clean election. All that will matter is that massive ballot fraud was perpetrated in one failing, DEMOCRAT city, that, in reality, is run/politically-controlled exploitatively by and for the benefit of those that don’t actually live in the city, in order to keep the regional, socioeconomic status quo, and political/economic benefits available for enjoyment by said “absentee landlords” (puns intended)….
So, yes; Bridgeport’s “Ballot Gate” is an “exploding scandal”, per mayoral candidate Daniels observation. But it might also prove to be “explosive” — in a more literal sense — in the aftermath of the 2024 elections, if there aren’t thorough investigations, leading to appropriate legal consequences for any wrong-doing discerned thereof, completed in a timely way, by appropriate law enforcement agencies pursuant to a legitimate outcome in the current, Bridgeport mayoral election cycle…
Hit the RESET BUTTON for Bridgeport’s future! Vote for Lamond Daniels for Mayor! (No absentee ballots in his trunk!…)
Hello!! Lamond!! The other candidates have gifted you with a $million in negative advertising! All that you really need to spend now is some time getting out your BRIDGEPORT vision and companion, comprehensive plan for achieving that vision… (You did a pretty good job with the public safety part — now all that have to do is unveil the other pieces and show how they all fit together… YOU CAN DO THAT BY NOVEMBER 7!!)
GO LAMOND!!
Vote LAMOND DANIELS! HIT THE RESET BUTTON FOR BRIDGEPORT’S FUTURE!!! (No absentee ballots in Lamond’s Trunk! )
There’s going to be a roundup, “on both sides”, and I use that term loosely. This shit is going to get messy once this move on the prosecution side of the criminal system as they go through the footage and start tagging campaign workers.
John in all fairness while it’s not the Catholic clergy I cut a clip for entertainment purposes.
To Joppa’s and Johnpas’ supporters at the drop boxes. I now love them and believe in their moral conviction for the people of the Port, but there were cameras there. 🤣
