The woman you see repeatedly dropping in multiple ballots is Wanda Geter-Pataky, a city employee and campaign worker for Mayor Joe Ganim. She plead the 5th the entire time during the court hearing.

John Gomes won the in person voting at the polls on primary day, but Joe Ganim came out on top due to winning the absentees by roughly a 2-1 margin.

Thanks Jean!

What are Connecticut’s absentee ballot rules? We’ve outlined them here

https://ctmirror.org/2023/10/09/ct-absentee-ballot-voting-bridgeport-primary-election/


"It is a state felony to be in the possession of somebody else’s ballot or to deliver that ballot, unless you are a “designee” for that person. Only a person’s caregiver or family member — or, if no one is available, a police officer or registrar of voters in the voter’s town — can serve as a “designee.”

The State Elections Enforcement Commission has voted to open a sprawling investigation and subpoena all absentee ballots cast. The commission said it received at least four complaints from citizens and two referrals from the Bridgeport Police Department regarding possible misuse of absentee ballots, including their distribution at senior housing complexes"

Ballot harvesting (ballot collection) laws by state

https://ballotpedia.org/Ballot_harvesting_(ballot_collection)_laws_by_state


Connecticut  is the very tiny state in green in the Northeast on this map. Green means a person chosen by the voter is allowed to collect their ballot, then mail it(drop it off).
