Corey says Senator Murphy is "Murphlighting" voters about crime


Our politicians have been crowing about crime being lower on their watch. But the FBI has quietly revised its data to reflect reality. Turns out that crime is actually up, not down.


Our Democrat Senator Chris Murphy has repeatedly stated that our streets are safter and crime is plummeting here. He sees no need for more stringent law enforcement. Turns out that rather than a -2.1% drop, there has been a +4.5% increase in violent crime based on revised FBI data.


His Republican opponent Matt Corey says that Murphy has been gaslighting voters about the severity of America's crime crisis. Corey calls it "Murphlighting" here.


Between the lines: The polls are now showing that this race is tightening. A long shot win by Corey would be a huge upset for our 2-term CT Senator Murphy who is currently campaigning hard for Kamala Harris in hopes of getting an appointment, possibly as Secretary of State, if she wins.
