From Courant.com:
Two rivals of Secretary of the State Susan Bysiewicz in the campaign for the Democratic nomination for attorney general raised questions Thursday about her use of an internal database from her office to send thousands of e-mails soliciting political support and campaign contributions.
Bysiewicz’s two Democratic opponents — former state Senate Majority Leader George Jepsen and state Rep. Cameron Staples — both commented on a Sunday Courant story about Bysiewicz’s use of a database, assembled by her office, of 36,000 constituents’ names, including about 9,900 e-mail addresses. In the past year her campaign committee sent thousands of e-mails to people in the database soliciting political support and campaign contributions.
