Connecticut Secretary of State Deposition in Election Law Lawsuit May Have Two Video Cameras

According to this story in the Hartford Courant, Connecticut Secretary of State Sysan Bysiewicz, a Democrat, will have her deposition taken on March 30, for the lawsuit over whether she is qualified to be Attorney General (the office she is seeking this year). There is a lawsuit because a Connecticut statute says the Attorney General must have been actively practicing law during the past 10 years. Bysiewicz is an attorney but it is not clear whether she has been actively practicing law, in her capacity as Secretary of State for almost 8 years.

Secretary Bysiewicz has asked permission to have her own video photographer tape the proceedings. It had already been arranged that her deposition will be taped, but by a camera that is only trained on Bysiewicz. She wants another tape, in which the camera is trained on the attorney for the Republican Party as he asks the questions.
