CTLP is proud to offer its first general candidate survey. The survey is open to all candidates and slates of candidates running for municipal office this November.
It is not a long survey, just four questions. The answers to all surveys will be posted on the CT Elections Wiki, where they will be publicly available and easily found by major search engines. We’ll also post some of the more interesting responses here on the site.
If you are a candidate or are a part of a slate of candidates, all you have to do is answer the four questions and email them to me at chris@ctlocalpolitics.net. You can also post the responses to the survey in the comments section of this post.
Here’s the quick, simple survey:
Name(s):
Party:
Office(s) sought:
Town:
1. What do you think are the most important issues facing your town?
2. If elected, what would be your highest priorities for the next 2 years?
3. How is your approach to town government different from your opponent(s)?
4. Why do you want to be elected to town government?

The idea is for us to create a searchable database of candidate responses on the wiki site. The responses will help to focus our coverage of the various town races.
Thanks for participating! I’m hoping to get responses from each and every town holding an election this November.

Have CTLP readers seen the “stun gun video” taken at a recent John Kerry event? Ken Krayeske has nothing on this kid!

With the focus so often being on Bridgeport when it comes to corruption – with a little “c” that is – the corruption in nearby Fairfield rarely gets noticed. One of Fairfields’s largest property owners – and later his son – went to Club Fed in the Ganim sting but his business just kept on humming because the father and son didn’t have to serve time concurrently thanks to the judge. and , of course, you have the deal the state and town signed with another former vactioner at Club Fed as well. Here is another sweet set of deals when you follow the money trail; Flatto ain’t that dumb, he just plays dumb:
But Flatto and Dougiello, on Dec. 28, each filed a “certificate of exemption from forming a candidate committee,” saying each was “one of a slate of candidates.”
Dara Howard, supervising accounts examiner at the state Elections Enforcement Commission, said a slate of candidates could have as few as two candidates.
“If it’s two or more candidates that formed a committee to fund their candidacy, it’s a slate committee,” Howard said.
Flatto and Jean Sturges, treasurer of Friends of Flatto and Dougiello, said they didn’t know the state considered two candidates to be a slate.
“I thought that meant if the whole party unified under a slate,” Flatto said.
