Bridgeport, Connecticut Mayoral Election

Bridgeport is electing a Mayor on November 3, 2015, in a partisan election. The incumbent Mayor, Bill Finch, was defeated for re-election in last month’s Democratic primary, but he wants to run in the general election anyway. Some supporters of Finch had petitioned to place the Job Creation Party on the ballot, and Finch hoped to be its nominee. However, on September 25 the Secretary of State ruled that the Job Creation Party didn’t meet the deadline for nominating candidates.

Another minor party organized just in Bridgeport, the New Majority Party, has its own candidate, Charles Coviello. Also running are the Democratic and Republican nominees and three independent candidates. See this story.
