Connecticut state Rep. Christopher Rosario, a Democrat, nominated embattled incumbent Councilman Alfredo Castillo for another two-year term this week at the party convention in the downtown government center.

Castillo, a Democrat who represents Connecticut’s 136th district in Bridgeport, is facing multiple counts of absentee ballot fraud involving the 2019 and 2023 mayoral elections in which he backed incumbent Mayor Joe Ganim.
