Dannel Malloy – Stonewalling an investigation by Connecticut’s State Elections Enforcement Commission.
When Connecticut Democratic Governor Dannel Malloy accepted $6.5 million in taxpayer funds to pay for this 2014 gubernatorial campaign he signed a contract promising not to accept any other funds to pay for his campaign.
But despite that commitment Malloy and his political operatives funneled millions of dollars through the Connecticut Democratic State Central Committee’s Federal Account in an unethical effort to beat his Republican opponent. The money that flowed through the Democratic Party’s special account included hundreds of thousands of dollars from people who directly benefited from lucrative state contracts, a move that also violated Connecticut state law.
Connecticut’s bi-partisan State Elections Enforcement Commission authorized an investigation into the illegal activities engaged by Malloy and his political operatives.
But rather than address the issues, Team Malloy have been fighting to stop the investigation.
Not only has he ducked his legal responsibilities as governor and as candidate for governor, but he is forcing the state to waste massive amounts of public funds trying to get the Malloy campaign and the Democratic Party to stop stonewalling the investigation by the Connecticut State Elections Commission.
The Connecticut State Elections Commission is hardly a partisan body.
Anthony J. Castagno of North Stonington was elected Chairman of the Connecticut State Elections Enforcement Commission in December 2012. He was nominated to the Dannel Malloy – Stonewalling an investigation by Connecticut’s State Elections Enforcement Commission. - Wait What?:
