CT early voting: Polls open Monday for two weeks ahead of election

Gov. Ned Lamont plans to cast his vote for president and down-ballot races on the first day of early voting on Monday, one of the efforts to publicize the late arrival of convenience voting to Connecticut.

“I’ll just say we’re doing everything we can to make it easier and more convenient for you to be able to vote,” Lamont said Wednesday. “That’s what early voting is all about.”

Connecticut is the 47th state to offer early voting, which was authorized in a constitutional amendment passed by referendum in 2022. The holdouts are Alabama, Mississippi and New Hampshire.

Early in-person voting is available in at least one place in every Connecticut community from Monday, Oct. 21 through Sunday, Nov. 3. Hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., except for extended hours of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Oct. 29 and 31.
