The mayor of Bridgeport, Connecticut, declared himself the winner early Wednesday of a disputed election, thrown into uncertainty by allegations of voting irregularities in a now-voided primary.With the final vote totals in the race still unannounced by elections officials, Mayor Joe Ganim told supporters that he had won, and called on his strongest challenger, John Gomes, to withdraw from a court fight that has the election probably headed to a do-over “You’ve been rejected twice by the voters. Respect the voters of the City of Bridgeport!” Ganim said, in a speech directed at Gomes, a fellow Democrat. “Withdraw these claims, they have now lost their legitimacy.”The people of Bridgeport cast their ballots Tuesday knowing the results might not settle anything.A judge last week tossed out the results of the Democratic mayoral primary and ordered a new one, citing “mishandled” absentee ballots that left the court unable to determine who won.That set up the most bizarre of the may...People nombra a Patrick Dempsey como el ‘hombre vivo más sexy’

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Mississippi Republican Gov. Tate Reeves won a second term Tuesday in the conservative state where his party dominates.Reeves defeated challenger Brandon Presley, who raised more money and made an aggressive push to give Democrats a rare statewide victory in the Deep South.“Mississippi has momentum, and this is Mississippi’s time,” Reeves told cheering supporters at a party in the Jackson suburb of Flowood, reflecting the main theme of his campaign.The mood at Presley’s party in Jackson, the capital city, was somber as he said hours after the polls closed: “Tonight’s a setback, but we’re not going to lose hope. … This campaign elevated issues that had to be elevated in Mississippi.” The race was unusually competitive for this GOP stronghold. But Reeves prevailed with a message focused on job creation, low unemployment and improvements in education. He also cast Presley as a liberal backed by out-of-state donors who were out of step with Mississippi.“For yo...‘Drink water’ says Croatia’s health minister after 4 suspected poisoned with Coca-Cola sodas
