What do Avon, East Haven, Middletown,Oxford, South Windsor, Trumbull and Woodstock have in common?
They are all among the dozens of communities across the state where the Democratic town chair has prevented Merrick Alpert from addressing their respective committees.
At least that's according to Alpert's Senate campaign, which released the list tonight.
Alpert's insurgent campaign against party favorite Richard Blumenthal has annoyed many Democratic activists. According to opinion writer David Collins of The Day, Alpert might also find himself frozen out of next week's Democratic nominating convention.
"They just want to hold the ball at center court and run out the clock" Alpert told Collins. "They simply want to stay away from me."
