But the group now has a powerful new ally in pushing its allegations about voter fraud: the U.S. Department of Justice. Stephanie Thomas, Connecticut’s Democratic Secretary of the State, said this week that it was unnecessary for the DOJ to be forwarding allegations of voter fraud to the SEEC. Linda Szynkowicz, the founder and CEO of Fight Voter Fraud Inc., did not respond to a phone call for this story. Clare Kindall, SEEC’s interim director, confirmed her agency received two memos from the DOJ in recent months requesting that state officials investigate allegations produced by Fight Voter Fraud Inc. The relationship between SEEC and the Fight Voter Fraud Inc. has been more fraught, however.
