ELECTION TIME-KNOW VOTER FACTS!

Did you know it may be illegal to return an Absentee Ballot for a friend and could lead to fines and even jail time?  Did you know you can ask for someone to hold your place in line while you take a seat if you’re not able to stand and wait at the polling place?  Did you know you can vote by “provisional ballot” if you registered to vote but your name is not on the voter list.

You’re not alone.  Most people don’t know the laws around voting especially as they have changed a great deal over the past few years.  Know the facts, don’t listen to social media or gossip.  You can get the facts at www.myvote.ct.gov including a VOTER GUIDE.  There is information on early voting, mail in voting, if you are eligible or if you are registered to vote.   If you have a problem on Election Day call the hotline at 1-866-733-2463 or send an email to elections@ct.gov.
