Suzio Carries Middletown, wins 13th Senate District Seat

Len Suzio, Republican from Meriden, won the special election to replace State Senator Tom Gaffey in the 13th State Senate district, according to Middletown Patch. Suzio defeated Thomas Bruenn, also of Meriden.

Suzio is the owner of a GeoDataVision, a business providing geographical information to banks, particularly to help them meet the requirements of the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). The CRA is a 1977 law which prohibits banks from discriminatory lending policies in low-income neighborhoods.

Suzio served for 14 years on the Meriden Board of Education.


The 13th district includes the southern half of Middletown, as well as the towns of Middlefield, Meriden, and parts of Cheshire.

In Middletown, 21% of eligible voters went to the polls, 52.3% of them casting votes for Suzio.

Would all Len's votes be invalidated because his name is wrong?

Zuzio is not the same as Suzio

I think Zuzio has a nice ring to it.. I plan to run in November 2011, as a Republian as Jon Zulino and on the Working Families Ballot as Johnny Pulino.

Great Job! Thanks, Jon Pulino

Anyone read the article in the Middletown Press about this race?
If only there were one.
Looks like MiddletownEye is taking over coverage of elections in Middletown so the Press can concern itself with races in other parts of the state.
