Opinion

BRIDGEPORT --- John Gomes, who hopes to unseat incumbent Mayor Joe Ganim in the city's special mayoral election on Tuesday, has written a powerful letter to the editor of the Connecticut Examiner, and everyone in Bridgeport should read it. https://ctexaminer.com/2024/02/24/more-coerced-endorsements-courtesy-of-party-boss-mario-testa/
Gomes references the pressure that Bridgeport Democratic party boss Mario Testa placed on Connecticut's top elected officials, including Governor Ned Lamont, to secure their endorsement of Ganim. It’s alarming and depressing at the same time.

The Ganim-Testa machine has been running
things in Bridgeport for far too long. The results haven’t been good. It’s time
for a change.
Vote for
Gomes on Tuesday. It will help not only Bridgeport, but Connecticut as
well.
