Reply to comment by melodiousmeow in New Page to Request Absentee Ballot by elainehas

Is this early voting? I thought that was on the ballot this year? Am I missing something?

Absentee ballots are able to be used this year due to covid I believe. This is not early voting. This is absentee ballots as I think that's the only version of mail voting in CT. I think early voting is something different than mail in and absentee. I know MA has early voting and my parents do that now.

Yes. You can request an absentee ballot and drop it off or mail it in, ahead of Election Day. Hopefully, they permanently expand this option. This year they’re still allowing people to use it due to the presence of Covid. I can’t imagine that will continue much longer.
