2020 Voting Information

This year more than ever, it is crucial to make a plan to vote.

First, check your voter registration. Ensure your address and other information is accurate at myvote.ct.gov/lookup. If you are not registered to vote, or need to change or update your registration, you can do so online or at town hall by October 27th.

Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, all voters are able to vote by absentee ballot. Every registered voter will receive an absentee ballot application by mid-September. You can also download and fill out the application from this [link], or get a copy at your town hall.

Ensure your vote is received. You can mail it in using the prepaid envelope, but the easiest and most reliable way to return your application is to use the ballot drop box in your town. Turn your application AND ballot into your ballot drop box as soon as possible.

Once your application has been received by your town clerk, an absentee ballot will be sent to you after October 2nd. When it arrives, be sure to fill it out completely and follow the instructions to place it inside the correct envelope. To be counted, it must be signed, dated, and sealed.

Absentee ballots must be received by the town clerk by 8:00 pm on Election Day- Tuesday, November 3rd. Postage is prepaid on the ballot if you choose to mail it in, but the easiest and most reliable way to be sure your ballot arrives in time is to use the secure ballot drop box in your town. It’s highly recommended you do this as soon as possible to ensure there are no unforeseen delays!
