Just remember, Perkins voted against the ICE program. That is all you need to know.

That's a good thing, if I were a citizen of this great country, I'd vote for him. I jumped the fence, crossed the river, fake all my id's and have no SS number, but i really like someone against ICE. Those people scare me, I may have to go back to my country or get a green card to stay.

No, that is NOT Duane Perkins. Of course, the NT posts a photo of someone other than the winner of the election. Figures. You would think that there'd be money in their budject for proof reading, fact checking and editorial review. After all the change and consolidation.
Pity the trees and the lost shade for the "cage liner" paper edition.

Wrong picture? Wrong side of ICE? Unaware of existing efforts related to Rt. 39 and 37? Not a great way to kick off a campaign.

Duane Perkins seems like a amicable enough guy, but he lacks the leadership ability to help Danbury, Bethel, New Fairfield, and Sherman in Hartford. We need to put in a stronger candidate to have a chance for the Democratic party win the Senate seat in November. Lets hope it goes to a primary and Tierney has a chance for the people to vote him in.

Does winning the fifth ward in Danbury as a democrat qualify you for anything?

The fact that he is laughing it up in the picture with Jason "free tuition for children of illegals" Bartlett is reason enough not to vote for him.

If the children are legal us citizens (anchor kids)... but they are legal, should the parent's status matter?
