…just when you thought things couldn't get worse with the Derek Roy campaign.
There are now numerous reports that the Republican dormitory student who's running for the Common Council 5th wards seat is going around to people residents and asking them to vote for vote for himself and Fred Visconti as if they're on the same ticket (Visconti has a long and distinguished career as a firefighter and Roy is a volunteer firefighter).
What's worse is that my same sources are telling me that after, after giving the impression that he and Visconti are on the same ticket, Roy's camp is dropping lawn signs in people's yards without their permission.
Again, I've received this from multiple VERY reliable sources in the 5th ward that are VERY angry.
From illegally using his military outfit in a campaign video, abusing his role as a firefighter in another campaign video, placing campaign material on state property (Western Connecticut State Univ) and people's cars, to misleading voters, enough is enough.
Derek, you're not running for the Student Government Association where child-like campaign tactics are quite common, you're campaigning to a spot on the Common Council. This nonsense needs to stop and it needs to stop now.
