In the general election on November 8th, look for a referendum question on your ballot (it can be on the top, the bottom, the front or even the back of the ballot) that reads: "Shall the Constitution of the State be amended to permit the General Assembly to provide for early voting?"
Democrats, Republicans, and Independents from all parts of Connecticut support Early Voting. Why? Because making voting easier and more accessible means greater flexibility for us all. Early voting modernizes our elections in a safe, secure way to move Connecticut into the future. The League of Women Voters of Connecticut recommends a YES vote on this referendum question. Learn everything you need to know about early voting and the ballot referendum question from the resources by clicking here. The League of Women Voters of Connecticut (LWVCT), in collaboration with Connecticut Public, is presenting a weekly series of political debates between the key candidates in advance of the midterm November 2022 elections, including debates for the statewide offices of Governor and Secretary of the State, as well as U.S. Senate and Connecticut’s five U.S. Congressional districts.
Moderated by Connecticut Public journalists, each debate will take place at a different college or university campus throughout our state and will be broadcast and streamed across Connecticut Public platforms. Following each debate will be a lively post-debate discussion led by Connecticut Public’s Frankie Graziano with Connecticut’s leading political pundits and journalists.
