State of Connecticut announced a new online portal for Connecticut registered voters to apply for an absentee ballot.
Voters will now be able to go online to CT.GOV to fill out their application form. CT residents must have a valid CT Driver’s license with a signature in order to use this online portal.
Connecticut law allows you to receive an absentee ballot if you cannot appear at your assigned polling place on Election Day because of active service in the military, absence from the town in which you are eligible to vote, sickness, religious tenets that forbid secular activity on the day of the election, duties as an election official at a polling place other than your own during all of the hours of voting, or physical disability.
To receive your absentee ballot, please complete, sign, and submit an application online.
You will be asked to provide your name, date of birth, and town as it appears in the voter record in order to look up and verify your voter information.
