If voters approve the measure, our legislators would be permitted to amend the law — if they so choose — to allow in-person early voting before Election Day. Read more here: bit.ly/3hkYSIP.

When you vote today, don’t forget to answer this Yes/No question on whether Connecticut should have early voting.

In addition to selecting candidates for office, all voters on Tuesday will have an opportunity to decide whether an amendment is added to Connecticut's constitution that allows for a system of early voting.   This is how that question will appear on your ballots ⬇️
Vote on the question. Shall the constitution of the state be amended to permit the General Assembly to provide for early voting?

Look for the early vote question on your ballot! If you have trouble locating it, ask a poll worker for help. *If you live in South Windsor or Berlin, the question will be on the back of your ballot!*

We agree with State Rep. Wood, voting should NOT be a challenge. That’s why we NEED early voting. Early voting is proven to increase turnout, @lwvct and registrars support it, and 46 states across the country have made it work. Vote YES! thehour.com/opinion/article/…
