The Democratic candidates seem to understand that, in order to win election, they have to campaign hard using every form of media available to them.
In the last week, we seen mayoral candidate Helena Abrantes, the person who wants to defeat "heck of a job" City Clerk Jean Natale, candidate Eileen Colaradci, and 2nd ward Common Council candidate Ken Gucker, make their case to the public. Now, lets look at two other candidates who are currently campaigning for office.
On the local access show, Community Forum, two more Democrats made their case to the public.
3rd Ward Common Council candidate Jim Kelly came within a heartbeat of winning a spot on the Common Council in 2005 and is taking a shot at the seat again in 2007. With the addition of Lynn Taborsak on the ticket, the 3rd ward is definately in play this November.
Brain Cotter is taking a shot at the position of Treasurer. The long-time Democrat, he has a battle on his hands against incumbent Dan Jowdy so he's getting a head start on campaigning and introducing himself to the general public.

On September 26, 2007, ten plaintiffs filed suit in response to an arrest of aday laborers at a public park in Danbury, Connecticut. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on November 26, 2007.
The amended complaint states that plaintiffs sought to remedy the continued discriminatory and unauthorized enforcement of federal immigration laws against the Latino residents of the City of Danbury by Danbury's mayor and its police department.
Plaintiffs allege that the arrests violated their Fourth Amendment rights and the Connecticut Constitution because defendants conducted the arrests without valid warrants, in the absence of exigent circumstances, and without probable cause to believe that plaintiffs were engaged in unlawful activity. In addition, plaintiffs allege that defendants improperly stopped, detained, investigated, searched and arrested plaintiffs. Plaintiffs also allege that defendants violated their Fourteenth Amendment rights when they intentionally targeted plaintiffs, and arrested and detained them on the basis of their race, ethnicity and perceived national origin. Plaintiffs raise First Amendment, Due Process and tort claims.
Plaintiffs request declaratory relief, damages and attorneys fees.
