Can I Vote Absentee?

Connecticut has strict laws regarding who can vote absentee:
  • Are you an active member of the armed forces of the United States?
  • Will you be out of town during all the hours of voting on Election Day?
  • Does illness prevent you from voting in person on Election Day?
  • Do your religious beliefs prevent you from performing secular activities like voting on Election Day?
  • Will you be performing duties as an election official at a polling place other than your own during all the hours of voting on Election Day?
  • Do you have a physical disability that prevents you from voting in person on Election Day?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you are eligible to vote absentee.
All voters can vote by absentee ballot in the November 2020 general election due to the COVID-19 virus,
per Public Act 20-03 July Special Session. Just check the COVID-19 box on the absentee ballot application.

You do not have to choose between your health and your vote. 

If you vote absentee, your ballot MUST ARRIVE at Town Hall by 8:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 3.
​It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you bring your ballot to the secure ballot drop box located in the rear vestibule of Town Hall rather than mailing it.
