There are no strong partisan contests on either the Republican or Democratic ballots in the April 2 presidential primary, but officials are encouraging voters to continue showing up Tuesday for Connecticut's historic first day of early voting. I want it.
“It's great to have early voting for the first time in Connecticut so we can see how it works and get used to it,” said Patricia Rossi, co-president of the Connecticut League of Women Voters. I guess so.''
Early voting was approved in November 2022, eliminating the need to wait in long lines to vote on Election Day. Each city and town must provide at least one early voting location for elections.
Early voting for the April 2 presidential primary election will be available next Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
“I think it’s really important to educate people about early voting, not just once, but multiple times, so that people get in the habit of understanding early voting, because people digest that information. Because it takes a long time to do that,” the New Haven mayor said. Justin Elicker.
Rossi, who helped lobby for 10 years to make this option available, said this will be a test of logistics in many places.
“What we've learned from other states is that early voting can help reduce pressure and solve problems on Election Day.”
You must be a registered voter to vote early. Or you must register by Monday. This day is also the deadline to change the party you vote for on any of the four early voting days.
“If we have a decent turnout, we'll do well in November when people really want to come and go,” Rossi said.
