Plainville -- Talking Points Memo, a national news site, reported Thursday morning on a misleading mailer from Sam Caligiuri to voters throughout the Fifth Congressional district.

In the mailer, Caligiuri fraudulently refers to himself as the "Republican Nominee" to challenge incumbent Democrat Chris Murphy. The letter is postmarked July 27, two weeks prior to the August 10th Republican primary election.

According to the Talking Points Memo article, Caligiuri's opponent, Justin Bernier, is saying that the mailer may violate election law.
