Election Day Registration Information

Election Day Registration permits anyone to register and vote in person on Election day who meets the eligibility requirements for voting in this State and is not already registered, OR is registered in one town but has moved to another town. By law, a person is eligible to register and vote if he or she is (1) a US Citizen; (2) age 18 or older; (3) a bona fide resident of the town in which he or she applies for admission; and (4) has completed confinement and parole if previously convicted of a disfranchising felony.
A voter must bring the appropriate proof of identity and residency. The Election Day process requires verification that the voter is not registered to vote in any other municipality in CT, or if the voter is registered, election officials must determine that the individual has not voted in the other municipality by telephoning the corresponding Registrar of Voters. 
The entire process includes voter registration, verification, and then finally the actual casing of a ballot. Voter must appear in person, and must provide proof of identity and residence.
