Hartford registrar penalized for calling police on absentee ballot count observers

The city’s Democratic registrar of voters was penalized last month for calling the police to remove members of the public from a ballot counting room during an election last spring. The registrar violated state statute during the Hartford Democratic Town Committee primary in March 2018, according to a June 19 order from the State Elections Enforcement Commission.
