FAIRFIELD A Democrat on the Representative Town Meeting has switched her party affiliation to Republican after she shared controversial posts about last week’s events at the Capitol on Facebook.
Tameisha Powell-Dunmore, RTM-6, said she changed her party affiliation to Republican on Monday after she claims she was “berated by some Democrats” for posts she made on Facebook and for supporting the first selectwoman’s Voluntary Early Retirement Incentive Program.
