BRIDGEPORT — It says something about the challenges facing Republicans in Connecticut’s largest city when one of the party’s best chances to win a City Council seat Nov. 7 is a candidate who had first tried to run as Democrat. That would be ex- “lifetime Democrat” Michael Giannotti, a staffer for former Mayor John Fabrizi and, more recently — and briefly because of a falling out — for Mayor Joe Ganim. Giannotti, 63, is one of two GOP candidates vying for the pair of council seats representing the 130th District, which includes the waterfront Black Rock neighborhood where voters frustrated with high real estate taxes have occasionally elected Republicans.
