It's official! Newton resigns

Newton made the announcement on the steps of Bridgeport City Hall a few minutes ago.

From WTNH (w/ video)
Bridgeport state Senator Ernest Newton, saying nobody is forcing him, is resigning.

Newton has been the target of allegations of campaign fraud and accepting a bribe in exchange for a state grant.

Newton has not been charged with any crime and has denied wrongdoing.
