Democrats refuse to comply with SEEC subpoena

HARTFORD, Conn. – An attorney for the Connecticut Democratic Party told state election regulators Monday that the party won’t comply with its investigatory subpoena regarding get-out-the-vote campaign mailings prominently featuring Democratic Gov. Dannel P. Malloy in 2014.

Attorney David Golub, who represents the Democratic Party, said federal law — rather than state law — dictates the use of get-out-the-vote communications in campaign mailings.

“It’s crystal clear that federal law regulates any kind of communication, including mailers, that have get-out-the-vote activity,” Golub said. “This is not something that reasonable people would disagree about.”
