What’s the Matter With Marilyn Moore?

State Senator Marilyn Moore wants a chunk of your stimulus check for her re-election campaign. The Bridgeport Democrat is using the pandemic crisis to plant fundraising seeds as she faces an August primary challenge. Moore’s request, above, has a high cringe factor as thousands of Connecticut workers have lost their jobs in the past two weeks.

Moore narrowly lost the Democratic primary for mayor of Bridgeport last September. Her strong showing was squandered by her campaigns failure to collect enough signatures to advance to the fall contest on the Working Families Party ballot line.
