Five Democrats in Bridgeport, Connecticut Officially Indicted on Voter Fraud Charges Over Mail-In Ballots

The Democrat machine in Connecticut is crumbling under the weight of its own corruption as five Democrat operatives have been indicted on voter fraud charges related to mail-in ballots in the 2023 mayoral primary.

Dozens of pages of arrest warrant affidavits, made public Monday, outline the disturbing allegations against Councilwoman Maria Pereira, Bridgeport Democratic Town Committee Vice Chair Wanda Geter-Pataky, City Councilman Alfredo Castillo, Councilwoman Jazmarie Melendez, and Stratford resident Margaret Joyce, according to Connecticut Post.

These indictments stem from a comprehensive investigation into allegations of widespread absentee ballot tampering during the contentious 2023 Democrat mayoral primary between incumbent Mayor Joe Ganim and challenger John Gomes. Geter-Pataky and Castillo were supporters of Ganim, whereas Pereira and Melendez endorsed Gomes.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that then-Mayoral candidate John Gomes’ campaign released a damning video showing evidence of election fraud in the recent Bridgeport Democratic primary. The video has prompted an investigation by the Bridgeport Police Department for “possible misconduct.”

The video on the Gomes campaign’s Facebook page shows a woman dropping stacks of ‘illegal’ ballots into an absentee ballot box outside the Bridgeport government center, where the city’s Registrar of Voters office is located.

The Gomes campaign was able to identify the woman in the footage as Wanda Geter-Pataky, the Vice Chairwoman of the Democratic Town Clerk and a vocal supporter of incumbent Mayor Joe Ganim, who is seeking reelection. Gomes’ campaign claims that the video shows Geter-Pataky dropping off stacks of absentee ballots ahead of the September 12th primary.

The primary’s outcome, initially favoring Ganim by a narrow margin of 251 votes, was subsequently overturned by a state Superior Court judge due to compelling evidence of “blatant” ballot harvesting and fraud.

This judicial intervention led to a court-ordered rerun of the primary and general elections, both of which were again won by Ganim.

The five indicted Democrats were released on promises to appear in court on March 6—a laughable slap on the wrist considering the gravity of their crimes. Will there be real accountability, or will the left’s political machine protect its own?
