How to Register to Vote

There are currently three different ways to register to vote.

  1. ONLINE
  2. MAIL
  3. IN PERSON

Prior to submitting your voter registration, here are some things to consider.

 Am I eligible to vote?

  • Are you at least 17 and turning 18 before Election Day?
  • Are you a United States citizen living in Connecticut?
  • If you have been convicted of a felony, have you completed confinement and parole?

If you can answer yes to all three of these questions, you are eligible to register to vote in Connecticut.

 What if I moved recently?

  • You will have to update your voter registration to reflect your new address.
  • If you moved to Connecticut from another state, if you moved to a different town within Connecticut, or even if you moved within the same town, your polling location may have changed.

What if I am a student? 

If you are a college student living away from home, you may choose to vote in one of two ways:

  • Either complete an absentee ballot for the election at our local Town Clerks office

    OR
  • Register to vote in your college town
