Republicans and many Democrats condemned the tweet by the state Democrat Party that

compared George Logan, a black Republican two-term former state senator who is running against incumbent U.S. Rep. Jahana Hayes, a black woman, to the famous mischievous monkey in children’s books, claiming the theme of the tweet concerned Logan’s residency in the 5th district. Logan recently moved from Ansonia to Meriden, which is in the 5th district.
