Every two years, Norwalk holds a municipal election. And every two years, the results are pretty much the same: Democrats sweep virtually everything of significance. Last November, Democrats retained control of the Mayor’s office, maintained a 15-to-1 majority on the Common Council, and a 9-to-0 majority on the Board of Education. For the record: I’m a Democrat. Between 1997 and 2019, I served 14 years on the Norwalk Common Council and six years on its BOE.
