A Bridgeport ballot box is lit up by street lights from its position on Boston Ave. on Election Day November 07, 2023.

Connecticut Public has spent the past year investigating political dysfunction, allegations of absentee ballot misconduct, and machine politics in Bridgeport.

The investigation has culminated in a four part series called In Absentia. Today, we hear episode 3 of this podcast and speak to members of The Accountability Project, Connecticut Public’s investigative team.

You can listen to all the episodes of In Absentia here, ctpublic.org/bpt, or wherever you get your podcasts.
