Cheshire Voters To Cast Votes In Nation's Last Primary

CHESHIRE, CT – Tuesday is Primary Day in Connecticut, as voters are the last in the nation to cast their ballot for the 2020 Presidential Primary.

Voters who have yet to cast their absentee ballots may do so in a variety of ways. Those who choose to mail their ballots must do so by 5 p.m. Tuesday in order for it to be counted, following an executive order signed by Gov. Ned Lamont on Monday. Those who have already mailed in their ballots may check to see if it was received by visiting http://myvote.ct.gov/lookup.

Voters can also drop their absentee ballots in secure ballot drop-off boxes in front of town clerk offices by 8 p.m. Tuesday.

In-person voting locations are also open Tuesday and will be following coronavirus safety guidelines including social distancing and requiring face coverings.
