From Courant.com:
epublican State Party Chairman Chris Healy said Tuesday he would file a formal complaint with the state Judicial Branch’s Statewide Grievance Committee against Democratic Secretary of the State candidate Denise Merrill, saying she has misrepresented herself as an attorney.
Responding to a Sunday Courant column, Healy said that Merrill, of Mansfield, the state House majority leader, “has claimed in her official biography on her official website, her campaign website and printed materials that she is an attorney even though her law license in California has been inactive for over 30 years.”
“Merrill has tried to cover her tracks by placing an ‘asterisk’ to denote her law status in California,” Healy said, but “placing a notation doesn’t excuse breaking the rules.”
