Merrill Makes Bid to Be Woke on Twitter.

Secretary of the State Denise Merrill won’t comment on the scandal enveloping her deputy, Scott Bates, the former chairman of the Connecticut Port Authority. The three-term Democrat has found time to consult the contemporary music charts. She’s found inspiration in Lizzo’s popular “Truth Hurts” for a tweet on voter registration.
