I am shocked, I tell you, shocked. A
Joe Lieberman "activist" has been accused of breaking the law. Again. Apparently, this woman went around to nursing homes in the Hartford area to distribute absentee ballots and promoted Joe Lieberman while doing it. She has previously been convicted of a similar offense in 2004.
I found it interesting that Joe Lieberman is so desperate for help that he is not doing background checks on people that are working for him - who knows how many other criminals are on his roster?
Also, a second article in today's Hartford Courant has Joe Lieberman borrowing some people from NYC Mayor Bloomberg to help in his GOTV efforts. I have that below.
A Hartford Democrat who was fined and barred from involvement in absentee ballot activities last year is working for a company hired by Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman's campaign to do voter outreach in the city - including the distribution of absentee ballot applications.
Prenzina Holloway was fined $10,000 in July 2005 and ordered not to distribute absentee ballot applications or to assist voters with the ballots for two years, after the State Elections Enforcement Commission found that she had forged a voter's signature in the 2004 election.
Holloway acknowledges working for Urban Voters and Associates, a company paid $17,550 by the Lieberman campaign since September to do "field work." But she said she isn't involved in the company's absentee ballot operations.

Here is the article on Bloomberg:
STAMFORD -- Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman welcomed the endorsement Monday of New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a billionaire Republican who self-financed his two successful campaigns.
Standing with Lieberman outside the Stamford train station, Bloomberg brushed off a question about having anything in common with Ned Lamont's self-financed campaign to unseat Lieberman.
(snip)
Bloomberg has backed Lieberman with money, fundraising help and the loan of key staff, a crucial boost for a candidate who has no party backing.
Korinne Kubena, one of the Bloomberg administration aides on loan, is running Lieberman's get-out-the-vote operation with other New Yorkers.
