If you are at the polls and believe you may have experienced or witnessed an election official violating your rights, you should do two things: (1) contact the Secretary of the State’s Election Day Hotline at (866) 733-2463 and (2) report it to the ACLU-CT at https://action.aclu.org/aclu-form/ct-election-protection.

You all are our eyes and ears on the ground. We, along with others like the Secretary of the State’s office, are monitoring the election for any issues that may impact voters. While we will not be able to respond to all intake messages, we will be regularly reviewing the concerns that you flag for us and will respond accordingly.

It’s time to plan your vote! Between our day-to-day responsibilities, transportation issues, health and ability needs, and other barriers, voting can sometimes feel out of our reach. But voting should—and can—work with real life. We want to equip you with the resources information you need to plan your vote and be empowered to make your voice heard.

As of 2026, Connecticut voters have the option to choose between three easy ways to vote: (1) absentee voting, (2) early voting, and (3) in-person voting on Election Day.

Options like absentee and early voting make it easier to vote—on your schedule. We want to make sure you have everything you need to vote in a way that’s easy, convenient, and accessible for you.

Whether you vote early in person, by mail, or on Election Day, make a plan that works for you.

Apply for your absentee ballot early.
Find early in-person voting options near you.

Remember: voting should be accessible, secure, and built around real life.
