GOP claims bag of uncounted ballots found in Conn.By Susan Haigh, Associated Press – 2 hrs 39 mins ago HARTFORD, Conn. – The Republican candidate for governor in Connecticut says a bag of uncounted photocopied ballots has been found, further throwing into question the outcome of the race. Tom Foley says the bag was found during the counting of ballots in Bridgeport, where a shortage Tuesday night forced officials to photocopy ballots. Foley says it's unclear where the ballots originated and whether they are valid. He wants them impounded. Foley and Democrat Dan Malloy have claimed victory in Tuesday's election....

[Main part of article about ongoing count delete] In another development, state Sen. Kevin Witkos - who works as a police supervisor in Canton - is calling for an investigation into the Election Day use of the Reverse 9-1-1 system in Bridgeport.The system was used to call voters in order to tell them that the voting hours had been extended by two hours to 10 p.m., based on an order by a Superior Court judge after some polling places ran out of ballots. ... "State law is very clear that reverse 9-1-1 is an emergency notification system only,'' Witkos said....

Election Day 2010 in Connecticut could very much be extended a few more extra days because of the Governor’s race, which is for now, is still too closed to be called. A number of voting districts, including that of the city of Bridgeport, which had to extend to 10PM last night voting in a few polling places. Bridgeport, IMHO, has ALWAYS being a troubling city, which has included issues of political corruption. This voting ballot issue of not having enough ballots is just the latest installment in the difficult political history of this CT city. ….And not just in Bridgeport,...

While the Governor's race is now looking pretty interesting, the Senate contest is not...

There's been a huge movement in the Connecticut Governor's race over the last month and the race is now a toss up, with Republican Tom Foley inching ahead of Democrat Dan Malloy by a 49-47 margin after trailing 50-40 in early October. A look inside the numbers makes it clear that attacks on Malloy, rather than an increase in voter affection toward Foley, are what has made this race so competitive in the final days. A month ago Foley's favorability rating was 41/40 and now it's almost identical at 41/38. Voters aren't really warming up to him. But Malloy's numbers...

Democrat Dannel Malloy has pulled ahead to a 7 point lead in the race for governor in the latest Quinnipiac University poll that was released this morning. Malloy, the former mayor of Stamford for 14 years, had 49 percent of those polled, while Foley, the former U.S. ambassador to Ireland, had 42 percent. The poll showed that 7 percent are undecided and 20 percent say they could change their mind before Election Day. In a bad sign for Foley, he has the same 42 percent that he had in the last Quinnipiac Poll that was released on September 29, said...

Is there any limit to the hatred liberal talk radio host Mike Malloy is willing to express on the air about conservatives?

As the mainstream media hyperventilate over what is now regularly being referred to as rightwing hate speak, liberal talk radio host Mike Malloy Friday actually called for conservative talkers Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and Bill O'Reilly to commit suicide. "You rat bastards are going to cause another Murrah federal building explosion," said Malloy. "[M]aybe at that point Beck will do the honorable thing and blow his brains out." He disgustingly continued, "Maybe at that point, Limbaugh will do the honorable thing and just gobble up enough - enough Viagra that he becomes absolutely rigid and keels over dead."

Mike Malloy: "Well, keep it up boys, just keep it up, um except for one thing: you rat bastards are going to cause another Murrah federal building explosion, you are. And then - what is Beck - maybe at that point Beck will do the honorable thing and blow his brains out."

Left-leaning talk-radio host Mike Malloy is accusing Republicans of plotting the Christmas Day attempted bombing of a flight to Detroit – possibly planning to kill 200 to 300 people – simply to "embarrass" the Obama administration. During his syndicated program Jan. 5, Malloy said, "Now, the inquiry, the questions are being raised as to whether or not this is not a deliberate attempt to embarrass – ah, that's not quite a strong enough word, but let's start there – embarrass the Obama administration." The following is a short clip of several similar statements he made on the topic:

The city of Stamford recently enacted an ordinance permitting the use of surveillance cameras for homeland security, law enforcement and crime prevention efforts in our community. Implementation could take the form of fixed cameras as well as cameras mounted in law enforcement vehicles. Public safety officials conducted a thorough and exhaustive study into the topic, including input from the public. After much consideration it was determined that the use of surveillance cameras would be an efficient and ultimately cost effective tool in homeland security, crime prevention and investigative efforts. In fact, the use of surveillance cameras is one of the...

It is with great excitement and optimism that I announce today the formation of a new progressive talk radio network. Myself along with my partners, Anita and Sheldon Drobny; the original cofounders of the Air America Radio Network, want to be the first to tell all you “truth seekers” that the original truth seeker himself Mike Malloy will be born again live on the public airwaves. -snip- Also joining our team will be internationally renowned pollster John Zogby

Liberal Air America radio host Mike Malloy had his show abruptly “terminated” on Wednesday, allegedly for financial reasons. The network is failing but there could be another factor behind the Malloy debacle. There is still fallout from Malloy’s recent decision to turn over two-and-a-half hours of his three hour show to a former associate of ex-con Lyndon LaRouche, a perennial candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination who campaigns against what he views as British and Zionist control of the U.S. political system. The LaRouche organization is frequently labeled as a cult. The former high-level LaRouche associate, Webster Griffin Tarpley, was...

Mike Malloy is having "freeper night" on his show this Wednesday from 10-1 PM Eastern. Let's call in and tell liberals how crazy they are!!! The phone number is 866-303-2270. Anybody up for it?!

Here is a link to the guy on Kasich's show last night. This is the guy that got so upset when John called his bluff he walked out of the interview! http://www.mikemalloy.com/ TLR

U. NOTRE DAME HOSTS GAY FILM FESTIVAL The University of Notre Dame (IN) is hosting the first ND Queer Film Festival, which began yesterday and runs through Saturday. (See www.nd.edu/~lsayre/NDQFF.) Films include “Hedwig and the Angry Inch,” described as an “anatomically incorrect rock odyssey,” and “Go Fish,” a movie about a young lesbian seeking love. Although Notre Dame has refused to recognize a homosexual student club, it has allowed the film festival because it is co-sponsored by an academic department, the Department of Film, Television and Theatre. Funding for the event comes from GALA, an association of homosexual Notre Dame...
