God save the Republic!

 It’s Election Day in Connecticut.

Voters in the 32nd Senatorial District (Bethlehem, Bridgewater, Middlebury, Oxford, Woodbury, Roxbury, Seymour, Southbury, Thomaston, Watertown) head to the polls today to choose between Watertown Town Councilor Rob Kane and Kenny Curran, the Democrat Town Committee Chairman in Bethlehem and the former employee of corrupt Hartford Mayor Eddie Perez.  The Waterbury Rep-Am has the story.  Capitol Watch weighs in, too.

The first Senate race run with public dollars, Headless Horseman commented, gotten nasty of late, as Curran criticized Rob Kane for missing Town Council meetings.  Damning, yes?  Well, it turns out that Mr. Kane did miss the meetings, but not for nothing - his mother died.  Not Mr. Curran’s finest hour.  HH has also done an excellent comparison of the two candidates, which is instructive.

Tune in later this evening as we get the results from the 32nd Senate District.
