Connecticut attorney Andrea Truppa won her bid to represent Democrats in November for a Probate Court District judgeship, beating Anna Zubkova in a race that saw national attention when it was learned that Zubkova’s hisband is an active white supremacist.
According to the Norwich Bulletin, Truppa, after winning Tuesday’s Democratic primary, she now will face Republican Carol Ann Row in November in a race to succeed Probate Judge David Griffiths who is retiring.
It remains to be seen if Zubkova is going to end her campaign for the seat however, According to the Plainfield, CT clerk’s office, she filed paperwork last week to appear on the ballot in November as an independent.
Zubkova’s husband, Rob Freeman was a longtime member of the now-defunct white supremacist National Alliance, and currently runs a racist blog called Mindweapons in Ragnarok. Despite the fact that Zubkova, who has never been pubicly involved in the same activities as her husband, said that he became a white supremacist after their marriage in 1997, and that as a judge, she would not discriminate against anyone, her campaign became a concern for not just the constituents that were to vote for either her or her opponent, but also across the country as blogs and other news outlets reported on this race.
Freeman, meanwhile has announced on his blog that he will slow down his activity for the foreseeable future. “I think it’s time to take a break from blogging and write a book,” he wrote. “The blog will stay up and comments will still be monitored.”
