Connecticut Votes
 

Here is what you need to know about voting in the November 3rd General Election

    • There is no early voting in Connecticut. Connecticut does not offer an early voting period. If you won’t be able to vote in person on Election Day, you can request an absentee ballot by mail or by visiting your Local Election Office. Connecticut will mail an absentee ballot application to every registered voter.
    • You should request your ballot as far in advance of the election as possible. The deadline to request a ballot by mail is (received by) Monday, November 2, 2020.
    • If you are registered to vote in Connecticut, you can look up where to vote on Connecticut’s Site.
    • You can also contact your Local Registrar of Voters, and ask them for information about location, hours of operation and acceptable forms of identification.
    • If you are not yet registered, you can register until seven (7) days before Election Day. Thanks to Connecticut’s new Election Day Registration law, you can register and vote in person on Election Day at your town’s Election Day Registration location. (These locations will be published HERE soon.)
