Early Voting and No Excuse Absentee Voting Banner
Press Mention

It’s time to set the record straight: Voting in Connecticut is overwhelmingly safe and secure; it is administered by election professionals from both major parties. Connecticut voters turned out in record numbers for the November 2020 election, in part thanks to an executive order issued by the governor and affirmed by the legislature permitting any voter to vote by absentee ballot. But because of our state’s restrictive absentee ballot laws, this was only allowed under these special circumstances.

Senate Bill 753: An Act Concerning the Counting of Incarcerated Persons for Purposes of Determining Legislative Districts was voted out of committee this week. If passed by the CT legislature, the bill would end the unfair practice of prison gerrymandering. Please contact your state senator and ask them to 1) urge Senate Leadership to bring this bill to a vote and 2) vote “YES” on SB 753 when it is raised.
